A syndicated Jimmie Fidler 'Hollywood' gossip column profiles Neville Goddard as an artist who believes in 'the school of positive thinking', tracing his two careers: first as a dancer who starred on Broadway and in the old Hippodrome, partnered with Amerique across America and into Europe (favourites there of Edward, Prince of Wales, and George, Duke of York, both later England's kings); then as an author and lecturer who has written eight successful books and now lectures on stage and television. The column reports two movie studios have approached him about filming his life story, and notes his family's wealth and West Indies island home. The same wire item was reprinted, with minor OCR variation, in several papers (Hollywood-column, Valley Times, Nevada State Journal and further Fidler bylines) collected as separate CWB clippings/article nodes; each is attached here as an independent witness rather than treated as a new event. This column adds that two movie studios had recently approached Neville about filming his life story, and describes his family as owning 'a whole island in the West Indies' with Neville said to be 'enormously wealthy in his own right' -- gossip-column colour not corroborated elsewhere in this corpus.
