Leatrice Joy(1893-1985)Making her film debut as an extra in 1917,she soon graduated to playing opposite comics Billy West and Oliver Hardy.Director Cecil B. DeMille took her under his wing and starred her in several of his films.Often playing career girls dressed in mannish suits,or sophisticated society girls,she is generally credited with starting the bobbed-hair craze in the 1920s.She retired shortly after the advent of sound,but made occasional appearances in small supporting roles over the years(detail:Her unusual given name is said by her grandsons to have come about in the following manner:she was supposed to be named 'Beatrice' but on the way to her christening,her mother remembered that Leatrice's father had once been engaged to a girl by that name.So she went through the alphabet (Beatrice, Ceatrice, Deatrice) until she came to a version she liked.)
