Beautiful Portraits of Jean Harlow Taken by Herbert Mitchell, 1932

In early 1932, Jean Harlow was deep in a personal appearance tour that would last from December 1931 to April 1932, when her cinematic efforts were rewarded with an MGM contract.

This wasn’t her first trip East, and each time Harlow went she seemed to return with a new photography studio under her belt; some of the East Coast based photographers she sat for over 1930–1932 include William White Studios, Pach Brothers, Irving Chidnoff, Charles Gates Sheldon, and Herbert Mitchell.

Focusing on Mitchell’s images today, we see a variety of expressive poses from the barely 21 year old Harlow, varying from solemn to playful. The photographs were taken by Herbert Mitchell.
