Pearl Eaton

Pearl Eaton Levant (August 1, 1898 – September 10, 1958) was an American Broadway performer, actress, choreographer, and dance supervisor of the 1910s and 1920s.

In 1911, all three sisters were hired for a production of Maurice Maeterlinck's fantasy play The Blue Bird at the Shubert Belasco Theatre in Washington.

After The Blue Bird, in 1912, the three Eaton sisters and their younger brother Joe began appearing in various plays and melodramas for the Poli stock company.

The siblings were subsequently invited to reprise their roles for a New York and road tour of the play, produced by the Shubert Brothers.

However, shortly after giving birth, she regained her dancing form and was back at the Winter Garden, appearing as a specialty dancer in Sinbad.

In the late 1920s Eaton moved to Los Angeles and worked as a dance director and choreographer for RKO Studios, where her first film was Street Girl (1929).

[8] Eaton also dabbled in various other careers, opening a dance studio, writing songs and stories, training to be a realtor, and working for the Los Angeles County Census Bureau.

After the death of her second husband, oil company executive Richard Curtis “Dick” Enderly, she became reclusive and rarely left her home.
