Virginia Bruce and daughter Susan Ann Gilbert (dad is actor John Gilbert) go for a ride on a Pacific Palisades byway. It’s May, 1942, and here’s the Universal Pictures snipe: “Every day between pictures is Mother’s Day for Virginia Bruce, who shuns the glamour spots to remain at her Pacific Palisades home with her daughter, Susan Ann Gilbert (above) and her six-months-old son, Christopher Briggs Ruben. The picture above was taken just before Virginia started work with Abbott and Costello in their new comedy, Pardon My Sarong.”
