#Quote
1[About her first decade in films] In those days I was fresh out of school and delighted to be a movie star. Films were pretty much escapist entertainment, as opposed to the realism you see on screen today. Besides I was pretty much a utility girl at Warners. Anything Ann Sheridan or Ida Lupino or Jane Wyman didn't want to do, I sort of fell heir to. You know people frequently feel it was a shame Warner typecast me, but I don't believe that. I believe I typecast myself. I wasn't creative. Certain creative people - John Garfield, Bette Davis, Olivia de Havilland - didn't allow Warners to do that to them. So I don't blame the studio at all.
2When they tell me one of my old movies is on TV, I don't look at it.
3There are so many more interesting things to think about than whether Ida Lupino or Jane Wyman got the roles I should have gotten.
#Fact
1Even after becoming an American citizen, she remained completely apolitical and never registered to vote.
2Smith lost the leading role in the Hollywood High School production of "Who Killed Cock Robin?" schoolmate Nanette Fabray, who was a year older.
3Dirk Bogarde referred to her as "Fun, professional, loyal, and courageous" and "The days are brighter for knowing her.".
4A star of Hollywood's Golden Age, neither she nor husband Craig Stevens were ever awarded a "star" on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
5In her final years she and husband Craig Stevens lived in the West Hollywood house formerly owned by Loretta Young. The living room still had the big white doors that Young had used for her entrances on her TV series.
6Lifelong friend of Frances Rafferty. They met as dance students when they were kids.
7Signed by Warner Brothers after being seen in a college drama production, she was subsequently billed as "The Dynamite Girl" and "The Flame Girl" in promotional articles.
8Had her own nightclub act in the 1970s, which she took to Los Angeles and Canada.
9During the filming of The Young Philadelphians (1959) starring Paul Newman, she fell during a horse-riding sequence and broke her back.
