The Resume

    (May 17, 1889-February 17, 1946)
    Survived the sinking of the Titanic
    Acted in the silent comedy 'The Easter Bonnet' and 'Saved From the Titanic'

Why she might be annoying:

    All of her films are lost.
    She was a 'vivacious sort,' meaning a wise ass.
    She irritated other passengers aboard the Titanic, because she played bridge on a Sunday evening.
    Other passengers used their clothing to try to plug up the hole but Dorothy and her mother refused.
    When the Titanic began sinking, she and her mother rushed into a lifeboat.
    A month after the sinking, she wrote and starred as herself in 'Saved from the Titanic.' It was the last movie she acted in.

Why she might not be annoying:

    Although 'Saved from the Titanic' is lost, photo stills are available.
    She died of a heart attack in a Paris hotel (1946).
    She wore the same clothes in the movie, that she wore as the Titanic sunk.
    She blamed the Titanic sinking on the crew's 'lack of discipline.'
    She understood the severity of the situation and made sure to get herself, her mom and her three bridge partners into the first lifeboat.
    Her's was the only Titanic movie to feature an authenitic Titanic survivor.
