| DOROTHY DE VORE was born in Fort Worth, Texas, on June 22nd., 1901. and
when but a wee little lass her family removed to Los Angeles where she finished
her schooling. Then came an engagement with a musical comedy company which
was followed by a small part in a series of Universal Comedies. To her keen
desire to work and to a charming personality to say nothing of rare beauty,
this little Texas miss owes her present standing in the motion picture Hall
of Fame. It remained for the shrewd Al Christie to "discover"
Dorothy, and it was in his comedies that she attained real prominence. She
is a real screen comedian holding her audiences by the cleverness of her
every characterization. She is an unusually good swimmer and proficient
in many other forms of athletics. Devore stands 5 feet 1 inch in height,
weighs 110 lbs., and has brown hair and brown eyes. |
