FEARRINGTON VILLAGE, N.C., Nov. 9 (UPI) -- Novelist and children's author Lenora "Bubbles" Hornblow has died in North Carolina at 85.
The wife of the late film producer Arthur Hornblow Jr., died Saturday at her Fearrington Village, N.C., home after a brief illness, the Los Angeles Times reported Wednesday.
Hornblow, stepdaughter and heiress of tobacco magnate Leon Schinasi, married actor Wayne Morris at age 18 and their yearlong marriage produced her only son, Michael.
She married Hornblow, former husband of actress Myrna Loy and producer of "Witness for the Prosecution," at Bennet Cerf's New York home in 1945. Hornblow died in 1976.
She wrote her first novel, "Memory and Desire," in 1950, the "The Love Seekers" came in 1957 and her first children's book, "Cleopatra of Egypt," was published in 1961.
She and her husband wrote five children's books about animals, starting with 1965's "Birds Do the Strangest Things" through "Prehistoric Monsters Did the Strangest Things" in 1974.
Survivors include her son and three step-grandchildren.
