"There's a broad with a big future behind her."

-Constance Bennett

Constance Bennett and had two sisters, the daughters of stage matinee idol Richard Bennett and actress and literary agent Adrienne Morrison, were the fifth generation of actors on their mother's side of the family. The oldest sister was Constance, born in 1904, middle sister Barbara, the least known of the three, born in 1906. The baby of the family Joan was born in 1910.
Later Joan fondly recalled:

"With all of Constance's juggling of dates over the years, I started out as the youngest, then became her twin and finally wound up as the oldest sister.
