Trivia
Divorced in 1938, she moved to the United States via Britain. She spoke no English at that time, and had to take a job as a factory worker until, after intensive language study, she landed a supporting role in Alfred Hitchcock's 1946 film Notorious, in which she played Claude Rains' mother, although she was only 3 years older than he.

Quotes
(Of her role in Alfred Hitchcock 's Notorious (1946) and why she did not pursue further work in Hollywood): My very first part and they made me in this monster!
