Dorothy Montana Coburn (June 8, 1905 – May 15, 1978) was an American film actress who appeared in a number of early Laurel and Hardy silents. She was a niece of author Walt Coburn and granddaughter of Robert Coburn Sr., founder of the Circle C Ranch in Montana.[1]
Early years
Coburn was born to cowboy-poet and Western film producer Wallace Coburn and Ann Reifenrath Coburn in Great Falls, Montana but raised in Prescott, Arizona.[1]
Career
Her documented film repertoire consisted of 16 silent short subjects for the Hal Roach studios, and she appeared in scores of films as horseback-stuntwoman opposite such stars as Gary Cooper and Joel McCreaШаблон:Citation needed, and as a stand-in for Ginger Rogers in several of her dancing films with Fred Astaire.[1] Coburn retired from the movie business in the early 1930s. An accomplished rider and a fit athlete, Coburn occasionally worked as a stunt performer in westerns.
Later years
After leaving the movie business in 1936, she found employment as a receptionist for an insurance company. She was married twice. Coburn died in 1978, aged 72, from emphysema.[1] She is interred in Grand View Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California.[2]
