The Resume

    (March 28, 1925-June 2, 2010)
    Member of Hal Roach's ‘Our Gang' comedy troupe
    Appeared in ‘Pups Is Pups (1930),' ‘Teacher's Pet (1930),' ‘Fly My Kite (1931),' ‘Shiver My Timbers (1931),' ‘Free Eats (1932),' ‘Choo-Choo! (1932),' ‘Hook and Ladder (1932),' ‘A Lad an' a Lamp (1932),' ‘Fish Hooky (1933),' ‘Mush and Milk (1933)' and ‘Bombshell (1933)'

Why she might be annoying:

    Her ‘Our Gang' nickname was ‘Echo.'
    She wore gigantic hair bows.
    Her famous ringlets took two hours to style every day.
    She probably got her acting break because her parents were in show business.
    Her website is mainly devoted to selling autographed pictures of herself.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She was a versatile actress who could play both girlie-girls and tomboys.
    She said that the boys in ‘Our Gang' always got the best lines.
    A growth spurt ended her acting career just three years after it began.
    Many critics praise her comic timing and believe it was under used.
    Her final screen appearance was a small role with Jean Harlow in ‘Bombshell.'
