Trivia
For her work in 1931's "Trader Horn, " for which she spent several weeks in primitive, dangerous and unhealthy conditions in East Africa, Carey was paid the grand sum of $300 by MGM, making her very angry.
Upon returning to the U.S., she, along with the rest of the cast, was promptly fired by MGM, which had decided to shelf the picture.
However, several weeks later the studio decided to try to save the film, and called back the original cast, all of whom were under contract to MGM--except Olive Carey.
Told that she would be needed for five days and would be paid the standard $300 fee, Carey demanded a salary of $1000 a day.
MGM eventually gave in, as they needed her to match the footage that had previously been shot in Africa, and paid what she asked.
She told a friend that she would have normally done the reshoot for the regular contract fee, except that she saw a chance to get back at studio head Louis B.
Mayer for "dumping me in the middle of Africa, paying me nothing, then bringing me back home and firing me, " a feat that won her the reputation of being one of the few people in Hollywood to beat Louis B.
Mayer at his own game.
Salary
Trader Horn (1931) $5,300

Hi,
Olive Carey, close friend and respected by Duke, made only 3 films with him;-

] (1956) .... Mrs.
Jorgensen
Shortly after Duke's rise to fame in Stagecoach ,
Duke was talking to Olive, She said,
Quote: : Well, Duke....Now that you're a big star after Stagecoach what are you going to do?..
Duke replied,
Quote: : Well, now that I can have a little more to say about the roles that I take, I might do something like THE WHITE COMPANY, an English novel, about Knights.
Ollie Carey, never one to mince words, shot him a stern look,and growled, Quote: : You're a big, dumb son of a bitch, The people have told you, how they like you.They're your audience,
You give them what you want, not what you want, Suddenly a light went on in Duke's head,and he never forgot what Ollie told him.
Michael Wayne said:- Quote: : My father always followed her advice...
He didn't care about producers,
he didn't care about heads of studios,
he cared about his fans.

Judging by Mrs. Carey's advice, and Duke's adherence to it, I would say she had quite a bit of influence - thankfully!
JW certainly did care about his fans !
