She stayed on at the studio, dubbed the Ping Girl, and headlined in classic comedies like \u003ci\u003eTurnabout \u003c\/i\u003e(1941), \u003ci\u003eRoad Show\u003c\/i\u003e (1941) and \u003ci\u003eTopper Returns \u003c\/i\u003e(1941).  After a transition to Fox Studios, she starred in\u003ci\u003e Moon Over Miami \u003c\/i\u003e(1941), the thriller \u003ci\u003eI Wake Up Screaming\u003c\/i\u003e (1941), \u003ci\u003eOrchestra Wives\u003c\/i\u003e (1942), \u003ci\u003eMy Gal Sal\u003c\/i\u003e (1942), and \u003ci\u003eFour Jills and a Jeep\u003c\/i\u003e (1944), based upon a book she had written, inspired by her  many tours with the U.S.O.  Alas, by the late 1940s, Landis' career had dried up, and, increasingly plagued by marital issues and personal demons, she committed suicide by overdose, aged only 29 years. Her autograph is highly uncommon in any format.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e","brand":null,"offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67835464122582,"sku":"nzx1793402012941","price":44.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0822\/2526\/6902\/files\/cat-001603-carole-landis_1.jpg?v=1793402029","url":"https:\/\/candleholderclad.shop\/products\/cat-001603-carole-landis","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
