His Private Secretary
1933
John Wayne is Dick Wallace, a spoiled rich man whose father disapproves of his playboy-like ways. His father would rather have him settle down and take a job in his company as manager of collection department. After taking the job to please his father and heading on a trip to make a collection, Wallace falls for the granddaughter of the man he is to collect from, Marion Hall (Evalyn Knapp). Despite his father's objections, Wallace marries the girl. Marion then takes a job as a secretary at the elder Wallace's company to prove him wrong about her and his son's marriage.

Meet John Doe
1941
A soon to be laid off female newspaper reporter writes a final column, using a phony letter about a disgruntled man who plans to jump off of City Hall on Christmas Eve, as a protest of the mistreatment of the common people in society. When the article is a hit, the reporter must come up with someone to impersonate the writer of the letter she fabricated, so she recruits a down on his luck former ballplayer to take on the identity of the letter writer. When the newspaper publisher, with aspirations towards a Presidential bid, plots to use the man for his political gain, the reporter and the ballplayer are forced to make a decision about keeping up the ruse.
