I hope you have enjoyed visiting my Dorothy website. Please come back often as this is a dynamic site and I am constantly adding more pictures and stories as I find them or they find me. Who am I and why bother building a website for a long forgotten actress like Dorothy Sebastian? I am a Long Islander transplanted in the Midwest with some time on my hands and a fondness for silent and old western movies. A few years back my dad introduced me to Hopalong Cassidy and I became a fan. While reading about Hoppy, I learned about an actress named Dorothy who was his fourth wife. (William Boyd found his true love in fifth wife Grace Bradley whom he married in 1937. Don't you just love happy endings?!) Dorothy Sebastian, I find to be quite interesting in her own unique way. She seemed to have been a very fun and outgoing personality with quite a touch of that old 'devil-may-care' attitude. A true flapper! After searching the internet to find information about her I found some sites with pictures and/or blurbs but not much else. Around that time I received an offer to purchase a rather large file full of vintage magazine articles, pictures and clippings all on Dot. So what's a girl to do when offered such a treasure at an insanely reasonable price? I bought it of course! After receiving my file, I wondered what I could do with all that neat stuff... There was only one thing to do ~ make a website! Dorothy would be forgotten no longer. You will find photos of other stars like Grace Bradley and Elinor Fair on this site because the 1920's, flappers, silent movies and of course Hopalong Cassidy have long been favorites of mine. I want to thank all the wonderful people who have taken the time to share pictures, stories and other information with me. That sharing has helped make this a better website. If you have any information about Dorothy or her career, family, life etc please feel free to share. New and interesting bits of info are ALWAYS cheerfully accepted here! |
