In High Sierra, she played Marie, the dancehall girl who loves the doomed Roy Earle, who was played by Humphrey Bogart.

Ida Lupino became a director when she got bored with sitting around the sets.

She did lots of work on television.  I remember her in an adaption of Carlton Morse's I Love a Mystery.
