Dorothy Kelly — Motography’s Gallery of Picture Players (1913) 🇺🇸

Dorothy Kelly — “little Dot” — is a regular ray of sunshine out at the Vitagraph studio, despite the supposition that rays usually are golden-haired and blue-eyed.

But not so Miss Kelly; her hair is almost, if not quite, black and her eyes match her hair and she is the laughiest, jolliest girl imaginable. She has beautiful teeth, too, and it’s worth going any distance to see a Dorothy Kelly picture. She is splendid in the role of enchantress though she dislikes playing this kind of part and revels in that of a simple little home Miss or just a natural, joyous girl.

She is “one of the girls” at the studio, so you see, she is quite young though she had previous theatrical experience and has been in pictures for almost a year. A nice and generous girl is Miss Kelly, proffering one of her two wonderful American beauties, just as a remembrance — as though that were necessary.
