Thanks for that James. Do you have a newspaper or web site I can cite to get it added to the IMDb?

Fellow member Rusty White posted this in another forum:-

Agnes Anderson, 89, died Saturday, February 16, 2008, in Palm Desert. She was born in Budapest, Hungary, on March 25, 1918. She became a child star in the Hungarian movie industry. As a teenager during the German occupation of Hungary, she was sent to London for a film. She married Emeric Pressburger, a fellow Hungarian and famed writer of \\\"The Red Shoes,\\\" but divorced in her early twenties. She moved to Los Angeles, and while married to Byron Anderson for 26 years, she worked in the cosmetics business. She started her own real estate office in Bel Air and became a successful broker. Agnes left many old friends and gained new ones when she retired to Sun City in the desert in 1996. She remained active and supportive in charitable and church organizations, including animal rights groups, and women\\\'s clubs throughout the Coachella Valley. She loved art and owned a vast collection of paintings, antiques, and collectibles. A constant film-goer, she also enjoyed theatre, ballet, and opera, and traveled to Europe every year for the latest plays and concerts. Agnes last visited Budapest in 2006, always boasting of the beauty of her birth city, and her Hungarian heritage, but thought of herself as the quintessential American. She is survived by a sister, Kathryn \\\"Koto\\\" Adler, New York City, a neice and a nephew, and her beloved standard poodle, \\\"Gypsy.\\\"

But I do not know where this came from.
