American actress who played a bathing girl in several films during her short film career in the 1920s. She was born into a wealthy family, to broker Samuel Cupples Pierce and Elisabeth Howell (Plumber) Pierce. She was married to motion picture worker Francis Langton from 1926 until December 1930, when she was granted a divorce decree, then was wed to attorney Ralph Aldom Frost, Jr. from 1933 to his death in 1939. Not long after Frost's death, she was married to ranch farmer Edward Holcomb Fuller, presumably until his death in 1979.
One source gives her dates as born 15 October 1904, Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA; died 27 April 1972, Aladema, California, USA - but this is unproven. |
