She was born in Louisville, Kentucky in 1891[1][2] or in New York City in 1895 [3][4]. Born Cecile Laval Arnoux [5][6], the blonde known for playing femme fatales was a Ziegfeld Follies girl before moving to Mack Sennett's Keystone Studios in 1913.[7][8] She appeared in at least fifty films with notables such as Charlie Chaplin, Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, Mack Swain and Charlie Chaplin's half brother Syd.[9] She ended her film career in 1917 to marry a banker and relocated to the Orient where she died in Hong Kong of a particularly virulent strain of influenza in 1931.[10][11]
