Going Back To California

By 1953, Betty Brosmer decided to move back to her home state of California. She set her sights on Hollywood this time. She had made such a big name for herself in New York that her departure was even mentioned in the ‘Celebrity’ column by Walter Winchell. When she was in California, she did not have a hard time looking for freelance modeling gigs in the commercial and fashion industries. She also went to UCLA to take up psychology. A glamour photographer by the name of Keither Bernard hired her as well. They worked together until the end of that decade, and she earned a fortune from their partnership.
