Charles Pierce

From Enciclopedia.com :

Rebekah Harkness married Charles Dickson Pierce, on June 10, 1939 (divorced 1946) ... In 1939, at 24, Harkness married the first of her four husbands, Charles Dickson Walsh Pierce, a Yale graduate who worked for an advertising firm and was described by friends as a Walter Mitty-like character with his head in the clouds. "As soon as I walked down the aisle," Harkness said later, "I knew that I had made a terrible, terrible mistake." The couple had a son Allen (1940) and a daughter Terry (1944), before divorcing in 1945. Pierce returned to St. Louis, while Harkness, who obtained custody of the children, stayed in Manhattan, where she worked briefly in advertising and studied music composition.
