Trivia

Daughter Barbara Edith Roscoe with Alan Roscoe born circa 1924.

Brunette star of the 1920s who came to Hollywood without any prior acting experience. Began in westerns and was at various times under contract with Fox and Goldwyn. Her rather husky voice was deemed too much of a contrast to her appearance. As a result, her status declined with the advent of sound. However, she did spent another 15 years gainfully employed in "no-name" bit parts.

Was married to Alan Roscoe twice, once from 1922-1928 and again from 1930-1933.
