Like tar, I saw her in "Hunchback." And she was stunning. Ironically, the thing I remember most about that movie was Edmund O'Brien. I think it's the only movie he ever made where he wasn't overweight.
I never heard her called a particularly good actress, and she seldom got roles that called for much of a range, but she was awfully good for what she did. I think my favorite role of hers was as Natalie Wood's mother in "Miracle on 34th Street." She was playing a character that was quite unusual for the time (1947) -- a divorced mother with a high-level executive position in a large company -- but she and the script/director didn't treat it that way. She was just naturally independent. Hard to imagine her in a role where she played a subservient woman.
I think she and her husband owned LIAT or some other Caribbean airline for quite a while, but I may be thinking of somebody else.
