Billie Dove

Billie Dove (May 14, 1903 – December 31, 1997), American actress, vintage silver print postcard.  

As a teen, she worked as a model to help support her family and was hired as a teenager by Florenz Ziegfeld to appear in his Ziegfeld Follies Revue. She legally changed her name to Lillian Bohny in the early 1920s and migrated to Hollywood, where she began appearing in silent films. She soon became one of the most popular actresses of the 1920s, appearing in Douglas Fairbanks' smash hit Technicolor film 'The Black Pirate' (1926), 'Rodeo West in The Painted Angel' (1929), and was dubbed 'The American Beauty' (1927), the title of one of her films.
