FRANCES DEE(1909-2004)She was born in L.A.,where her Army officer father was stationed,and grew up in Chicago after her father was transferred there.In 1929, he was re-assigned to L.A.,and, as a lark,Dee began working in motion pictures as an extra.Her debut was in 1929.She met Joel McCrea on the set of a 1933 film. Following a whirlwind courtship,the two were married later that year in Rye, New York.Their 57-year marriage ended in 1990, when McCrea died. A film critic said that Dee was "one of the very few women in movies who really had a face...and always used this translucent face with delicate and exciting talent".Dee's career never reached its potential,though she remained a working actress in Hollywood for as long as she wanted. In 1943 Dee said she accepted the role in a low-budget thriller because of the fee - she wanted to buy her mother a new automobile. She retired in 1953.
