Why she might be annoying:

    When acting gigs were sparse, she supported herself as a secretary, waitress, key-punch operator and a jazz club singer. She admits that her singing was some of her best 'acting.'

    She smoked.
    Her last film role was in a black horror movie, 'Tales From The Hood.'
    She was born on New Year's Eve and died on Halloween.
