Scarce and terrific vintage 8x10-inch black and white glossy portrait, boldly signed in black marker in 1981.  In very fine condition.  The veteran stage actress came to Hollywood in 1952, to recreate her Tony Award-winning portrayal of the utterly pathetic Lola Delaney in the film version of Come Back, Little Sheba, and snagged an Academy Award for her performance.  Her all-too-brief screen career also included unforgettable turns in The Matchmaker (1958) and as the sassy maid on T.V.'s "Hazel" (1961-1966).
