The Metropolitan Campus will sponsor a series of four films from its Columbia Pictures Collection devoted to the art of the great stage and screen actress, Rosalind Russell (1907–1976). The program, “Rare Russell,” will showcase four films that Russell made in the 1940s. The films are rarely shown today, yet they were extremely popular in their time, and some were even ahead of their time. The films have been chosen from the University’s Columbia Collection, which consists of more than 200 16mm. prints and tapes of Columbia’s vintage films.

Russell was the logical choice for reprising her role as "Auntie Mame" when its Broadway musical adaptation Mame was set for production in 1966. She claimed to have turned it down since she preferred to move on to different roles. In reality, she did not want to burden the public with her growing health problems, which included rheumatoid arthritis.

Along the way, Russell garnered four Oscar nominations, though never a win. In 1941, she married producer Frederick Brisson and gave birth to a son. In the 1960s, while continuing to work sporadically, Russell confronted health issues, including breast cancer and the onset of rheumatoid arthritis.
