The Racquet Club was a resort in Palm Springs, California, founded by actors Charles Farrell and Ralph Bellamy, which opened on December 15, 1934.[1][2][3] Originally developed with two tennis courts, it expanded to include a swimming pool, the "Bamboo Room" bar, bungalows, and more courts. It served as a gathering place and party venue for much of Hollywood's show business elite.[4] In the 1970s it suffered a decline[1] and after a massive fire on July 23, 2014, it was totally demolished.[5]

The Racquet Club in popular media

The Jack Benny Program (also broadcast as The Jack Benny Show), a 1932–1965 radio and TV series,[6] featured a radio episode titled "Murder at the Racquet Club" on March 9, 1941.The Star Studded Ride, a 1954 short film, featured stars Gussie Moran and Dave Gillam at the Racquet Club.[9]  Pin-up photographer Bruno Bernard is credited with first photographing Marilyn Monroe at the Racquet Club in 1947; and it was at the club pool where she met talent agent Johnny Hyde.

Charles Farrell (August 9, 1901 – May 6, 1990)[1] was an American film actor of the 1920s silent era and into the 1930s, and later a television actor. Farrell is probably best recalled for his onscreen romances with actress Janet Gaynor in more than a dozen films, including 7th Heaven, Street Angel, and Lucky Star.

Biography

Born in Walpole, Massachusetts,[2] He began his career in Hollywood as a bit player for Paramount Pictures. Farrell did extra work for films ranging from The Hunchback of Notre Dame with Lon Chaney, Sr., Cecil B. DeMille's The Ten Commandments, and The Cheat with Pola Negri.  Farrell continued to work throughout the next few years in relatively minor roles without much success until he was signed by Fox Studios and was paired with fellow newcomer Janet Gaynor in the romantic drama 7th Heaven. The film was a public and critical success and Farrell and Gaynor would go on to star opposite one another in more than a dozen films throughout the late 1920s and into the talkie era of the early 1930s. Unlike many of his silent screen peers, Farrell had little difficulty with "voice troubles" and remained a publicly popular actor throughout the sound era.

Early 1950s

During the early 1950s, a decade after his career in motion pictures had ended, Farrell began appearing on the television series My Little Margie, which aired on CBS and NBC between 1952 and 1955. He played the role of the widower Vern Albright, the father of a young woman, Margie Albright, with a knack for getting into trouble, portrayed by Gale Storm. In 1956, Farrell starred in his own television program, The Charles Farrell Show.[3]

Personal life, public service and retirement[edit]

Seventh Heaven

Farrell married former actress Virginia Valli on February 14, 1931; the couple were married until Valli's death from a stroke on September 24, 1968.

In the 1930s, Farrell became a resident of the desert city of Palm Springs, California. In 1934, He opened the popular Palm Springs Racquet Club in the city with his business partner, fellow actor Ralph Bellamy.[4] A major player in the developing prosperity of Palm Springs in the 1930s through the 1960s, Farrell was elected to the city council in 1946 and elected mayor of the community in 1948, a position that he held until he submitted his resignation in 1953 to devote himself to his television series, My Little Margie. Farrell died from a heart attack in 1990. He was interred at the Welwood Murray Cemetery there.[5]

Awards

For his contribution to both motion pictures and television, Charles Farrell was awarded two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Hollywood at the following locations: 7021 Hollywood Blvd. (motion pictures), and 1617 Vine Street (television).

In 1992, a Golden Palm Star on the Palm Springs, California, Walk of Stars was dedicated to him
