Delightful American actress, capable of a wide range of characters, from maids to murder suspects. Arguably wins the 'best legs' award for her brief-but memorable dress-raising scene in Laurel & Hardy's "Hog Wild". She is the younger sister of Dick Granger. Some sources list her birthdate as 1912. The year listed on this page (1911) is from the Ohio Birth Index.
