Help identifying a old painting

I need help identifying a painting.
I purchased this at a lard sale, it's old but I can't identify who is in the painting...It looks to be a movie star... maybe Lana Turner, Betty Davis..?? Your thoughts.

Had a google but cant find any Turner whos style this matches. It looks like an modern american style.
Sorry I drew a blank on this so far

Thanks for the effort, I've been searching for days and also can't find any info on this. Hoping it will click with someone out there...Thanks

It looks like it could be Vivien Leigh. Though it may not be an actress at all. What makes you think that it is?

It may not be a actress, it just looks to be to me...

The hair and clothing looks like, maybe, the forties?
During the era of pin-up girls during WWII.

Just a thought.

Matthew-
“But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling to their companions
