Thanks for posting Ann~She had lived alone on welfare for many years in New York hotels overlooking 42nd Street.She was badly affected by arthritis. She was sometimes recognised shuffling along Broadway as a faded superstar of a world long past- but she was also mugged in her old age on her daily walk to a diner. She is buried in the Valhallia Cemetery in New York. No family were known to have attended her funeral, which was paid for by the Actors Benevolent guild.
