Billie Dove

Billie Dove

Highest Rated: 100% The Black Pirate (1926)

Lowest Rated: 100% The Black Pirate (1926)

Birthday: May 14, 1903

Birthplace: New York, New York, USA

One of the loveliest actresses of the silent screen, Billie Dove never became a superstar like Greta Garbo or Clara Bow, but her 12-year career, consisting of 36 silent films and 12 talkies, gained her many devoted fans and a place in history as a reliable, charming leading lady. With her ivory skin and dark hair and eyes, the native New Yorker took the name Billie Dove in her early teens and began working as an artist's model and film extra. Florenz Ziegfeld snapped her up for his "Follies" in 1917, where she remained through 1919 (also appearing in Ziegfeld's rooftop "Midnight Frolics").
