Dorothy Appleby (January 6, 1906Шаблон:Citation needed – August 9, 1990) was an American film actress. She appeared in over 50 films from 1931 to 1943.
Career
Appleby gained early acting experience as an understudy and a chorus member in plays in New York City.[1] A newspaper article reported that Appleby "came to New York fresh from winning a Maine beauty contest."[2]
Appleby was seen in many supporting roles, almost always in short subjects or low-budget feature films.
She soon found steady work in Columbia Pictures' two-reel comedies. She appeared frequently with The Three Stooges. She worked with Columbia comics Andy Clyde, El Brendel, and Hugh Herbert, and she had an uncredited part in John Ford's Stagecoach.
Some of her Stooge comedies were Loco Boy Makes Good, So Long Mr. Chumps, and In the Sweet Pie and Pie.[3] One memorable appearance was as Mexican brunette Rosita in 1940's Cookoo Cavaliers. In the film, Appleby gets clobbered by the Stooges when a facial "mud pack" made of concrete dries on her face. One of her later screen roles was a one-line bit (playing a college student at age 35) in the 1941 Jane Withers feature Small Town Deb.
Personal life and death
In October 1925, newspapers reported that Appleby had married Teddy Hayes, an athletic trainer.[4] Days later, however, Appleby contradicted that report. "Honest Injun, I'm single," she said. "Didn't mean it when I said I was married to Teddy Hayes."[5] On May 11, 1932, she was granted a divorce from actor Morgan H. Galloway.[6]
Dorothy Appleby died in Hicksville, New York on August 9, 1990, aged 84.[7]
