"By writing or reading obituaries, we can discover ways to make our time on earth more worthwhile, more productive, more meaningful to others."
Alana Baranick, "Life on the Death Beat"


"'I always read the obituaries in The Times,' I explained to her. 'They make me bloody glad to be alive.'"
John Mortimer, "Rumpole's Return"

Myrna Dell aka Marilyn Adele Dunlap

Actress -- via westernboothill.blogspot.com.She worked extensively in film, working mainly in B pictures, including some of the entries in The Falcon private detective series and comedy shorts with both Edgar Kennedy and Leon Erroll. (She can be seen briefly in more "significant" films such as "Thirty Seconds over Tokyo," "The Spiral Staircase" and "The Furies.")

Here she is in the magnificently crummy 1951 Western, "The Bushwhackers." She's in good company -- here's a treasure trove of character actors: John Ireland, Lawrence Tierney, Wayne Morris, Jack Elam, Lon Chaney Jr. and Dorothy Malone!
