Ida was very good friends with Ann Sheridan, and became close to Joan Fontaine. Although, they were both married to Collier Young at a time. As rigid and tough-minded as Bette Davis, Ida would often refuse to play a Davis hand-me-down role and was suspended by Warner Bros. for doing so. It was during those breaks that she would go on movie sets, chum around with the male directors adn learned the craft of directing. Blazing new trails, she became the only notable and respected female filmmaker of her era in Hollywood. Married to Howard Duff for 33 years.
