Introduction

Lenore Shanewise was a distinguished graduate of the University of Northern Iowa.  Over the course of her long life, she served as a member of the faculties of several colleges; as a talented actress and professional interpretative reader; as a director of drama both locally and nationally; as a renowned teacher of the dramatic arts; and as a performer in television and motion pictures. 

Miss Shanewise's talents took her from her birthplace in Waterloo, Iowa, and her alma mater in Cedar Falls, Iowa, to California, where she worked with well-known actors and actresses for over forty years.  This brief essay will concentrate on her early life, but it will also document at least the highlights of her long years of success in Hollywood.
