American actress with an unmistakably large nose, who was a prolific dress extra in the 1920s and 30s.  She was one of those people who popped up all over the place in films, sometimes in the background, and occasionally she even had dialogue! She married noted lawyer George Francis Vanderveer (1875-1942) in 1907.  They had a daughter, Barbara Frances (1912-1985), before divorcing.  George even had a biography written about him: Counsel of the Damned by Lowell S. Hawley and Ralph Bushness Potts (J.B. Lippincott Co., 1953).
