Biography
Dorothy Dare was an actress and singer. She appeared in quite a few 20-minute Vitaphone shorts and full feature films with bigger stars such as Dick Powell and Irene Dunne. Most of her films are shown periodically on Turner Classic Movies. Some have said Dorothy didn't get a chance in Hollywood. Also, many even claimed the shorts Dorothy appeared in were better than her parts in Hollywood films. In any event, the real Ms. Dare was part of the great era of entertainment and will forever be remembered in celluloid. Hopefully, more details of Dorothy's personal story and why she left show business in the mid-forties will emerge someday.
