[Leslie Howard appearing in Architectural Digest,
April, 1992, captioned: Throughout his career,
London-born Leslie Howard, who began on the
stage and later played Ashley Wilkes in
Gone With The Wind, remained the epitome of the
proper Englishman. He received Academy Award
nominations for Berkeley Square and Pygmalion.]

[Leslie Howard appearing Architectural Digest,
April, 1992, captioned: Howard's wife, Ruth, was
determined to grve their American house an
English touch, and she added chintz upholstery
and flowers to soften the effect of the
rough beams and stucco walls.]
