An informal

interview with

the nine-year-old

star of television

and broadway.

Bayn Johnson has played a likeness of Shirley Temple on television — in “What’s It

All About, World” last season — and in the starring role of the Broadway comedy,

“Curley McDimple.” She has been in show business nearly all her life — from her

first job modeling for TV commercials at the age of two, to recent recordings for

Capitol records. The name of one of the songs is “Curley McDimple.”

Behind the curly wig and pancake makeup, what is this nine-year-old girl really like?

Golden Magazine found her to be very bright and natural, with all the usual

interests of a girl her age — plus some others you can read about in the interview below.

Bayn cavorts as

"Curley McDimple,” a

Broadway show about

Shirley Temple as a

child star. Do you see

the resemblance?
