The woman who would use the name "June Glory" professionally was born Norma Ruth Reimiller in Ohio. Relocating to California with her parents and two younger siblings as a child, she was quite athletic and was the champion running broad-jumper for her school. Perhaps this athleticism is what brought her into dancing, as it was as a dancer that she made what is likely her screen debut in 1929. Though, she never received screen credit, Glory was a recognizable extra in at least thirty motion pictures during her career, including titles such as "Gold Diggers of 1933" (1933), "Dames" (1934), "Show Boat" (1936). In 1937, she wed writer/producer/director Jack Hays (1898-1975), the man who helped launch the film career of Shirley Temple (1928-2014). The couple divorced in 1946, but Glory retained his last name in her private life until her death. Apparently leaving motion pictures behind in the 1950s, Glory faded into obscurity. She passed away in 1982 at just 68 years old.
