Released in 1945, Men in Her Diary is a comedy film directed by Charles Barton, running about 73 minutes.

What it’s about. Singer/Dancer Peggy Ryan neither sings nor dances in this comedy in which she plays a secretary, whose life has no romance because she devotes all of her time to her attractive older sister. But she does keep a diary that contains some fact and many fictional entries. One such is read by the wife of her boss who promptly sues for a divorce. Virginia Grey stars in a musical produced by Hall and sings (possibly dubbed) "Makin' a Million" and "Keep Your Chin Up." No spoiler to add that Ryan gets a boyfriend and Hall and Allbritton are reunited before this one runs it course.

Who’s in it. Men in Her Diary stars Peggy Ryan as Doris Mann, Jon Hall as Randolph Glenning, Louise Allbritton as Isabel Glenning and Ernest Truex as Vernon Williams, among others.
