Shirley Temple Black Breaks Arm

 

 

SAN FRANCISCO, California (AP) Shirley Temple Black quietly celebrated her 80th birthday this week after breaking her arm in a fall at her suburban San Francisco home.

 

Rick Ross, her Los Angeles-based attorney, says the former child star is doing fine. She turned 80 on Wednesday.

 

Black was the top box-office draw in the U.S. from 1935 to 1938. Her best-known films include Curly Top and Little Miss Marker.

 

After retiring from the big screen, she held a number of diplomatic posts, including U.S. ambassador to Czechoslovakia.

 

Black lives in the San Francisco suburb of Woodside.
