Biography

Mills was from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where she attended Allegheny High School[3] and won a beauty contest before beginning a career in film.[4][5] She arrived in Los Angeles in 1925, having signed a long-term contract with Schulberg to appear in his films.[4]

In a review of With This Ring, the Lansing State Journal wrote that Mills was "rapidly becoming established as one of the leading actresses of the younger players."[6]

Mills married businessman William Davey in 1928. He bought her a house and they honeymooned in Honolulu, Hawaii.[7] Mills retired from acting at the time of her marriage.[3] The couple divorced in 1937, and Davey went on to marry actress Gloria Swanson in 1945.[8]
