'Simply put, Elizabeth Taylor was the biggest star of the Life era'

Life magazine, as you might expect, has a rich stash of Elizabeth Taylor photographs. As the website says, "Simply put, Elizabeth Taylor was the biggest star of the Life era." Life.com today is putting up unpublished photos, including this one of Taylor and Montgomery Clift on the Paramount Studios lot, while filming "A Place in the Sun" in 1950. Below, the 13-year-old star of "National Velvet" signs autographs at a charity cricket match at Gilmore Stadium, which used to stand about where CBS Television City is at Beverly and Fairfax. The photo is by Peter Stackpole and never ran in the magazine.
