Ann Dvorak, born Anna McKim (New York, 2 August 1911 - Honolulu, 10 December 1979), was an American actress.
Born in New York in 1911, Dvorak was the daughter of actress Anna Lehr (1890-1974) and director Edwin McKim (1868-1942). She began working from the age of four under the name Baby Ann Lehr for MGM as a child actress in three films: Ramona (Donald Crisp, 1916), The Man Hater (Albert Parker, 1917), and the short film The Five Dollar Plate (J. Gordon Cooper & Carl Harbaugh, 1920). After a gap of several years, Dvorak returned to the sets when sound film set in. In 1929-31 she did over thirty uncredited parts in early sound films such as the Ramon Novarro vehicles Devil-May-Care (Sidney Franklin, 1929) and Son of India (Jacques Feyder, 1931), often playing chorus girls. Her first credited part was in a MGM musical short titled The Snappy Caballero (Jack Cummings, 1931), with Paul Ellis and Conchita Montenegro.
In the late 1920s Dvorak was introduced to Howard Hughes, who turned her from a dancer into a leading actress, first in the aviation comedy Sky Devils (1932) with Spencer Tracy and George Cooper, which reused some aerial footage from Hughes' Hell's Angels. Dvorak immediately got the female lead of the film. Yet, it was Hughes' next film for his company Caddo film, the gangster movie Scarface (1932) by Howard Hawks, that turned both Paul Muni and Dvorak into international stars. At Warner Bros., Hawks recasted her as The Other Woman opposite Joan Blondell in the motor-racing drama The Crowd Roars (1932), starring James Cagney. From then one, Dvorak became a Warner star. She starred in several precode - often quite rough - dramas such as The Strange of Molly Louvain (Michael Curtiz, 1932), Love is a Racket (William Wellman, 1932), Stranger in Town (Erle Kenton, 1932), Crooner (Lloyd Bacon, 1932), Three on a Match (Mervyn LeRoy, 1932), The Way to Love (Norman Taurog, 1933), etc.
While less active in 1933, Dvorak was in seven more films in 1934, always produced by Warner/ First National. In 1935 Muni and Dvorak were reunited in Dr. Socrates by William Dieterle, about a small-town doctor dragged into helping a notorious robber. The film was advertised as 'The Scarface of Medicine'. Occasionally, Dvorak also played at other companies such as 20th Century Artists, RKO and Republic, and in particular several films in the late 1930s at Columbia, but most of her films of the 1930s were at Warner and its affiliate company First National, such as the Perry Mason detective The Case of the Stuttering Bishop (William Clemens, 1937), staring Warren William. Instead, Charles Vidor directed her at Paramount in She's No Lady (1937) and at Columbia in Blind Alley (1939). As Dvorak thought she earned too little money at Warner, she started freelancing, but offers were less frequent and scripts more modest. After only one film in 1936, she still did five in 1937, but afterward just a few each year.
During WWII Dvorak did several films in Britain with her husband Leslie Fenton, e.g. at British sections of Warner and RKO, and also worked as ambulance driver. After the war, she continued to act in films but with less frequency than before. She was e.g. one of the leading actresses in Albert Lewin's Bel Ami (1947), starring George Sanders, and the female star of The Return of Jesse James (Arthur Hilton, 1950) and I Was an American Spy (Lesley Selander, 1951), in addition to supporting parts in other films. In 1950-52 she also worked on five TV series. All in all, Ann Dvorak acted in 95 films and TV series.
In 1932, Dvorak married British actor Leslie Fenton, in whose films Stronger Than Desire (1940) and There's a Future in It (1943) she acted. Fenton and Dvorak divorced in 1945. She retired from the stage in 1951, the year in which she married for the third time, to Nicholas Wade, to whom she remained bound until his death in 1975. She lived the last years of her life in Hawaii and died in 1979 in Honolulu of stomach cancer, at the age of 68. The actress' body was later cremated and her ashes were scattered in the Pacific Ocean from Waikiki Beach. A star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is dedicated to her.

The "stutter" of the shadows of the pedestrians is caused (I think) by their shadows being suddenly increased in contrast whenever a car passed behind them.

I recall once on the church steps,When I moved to kiss your chest, How we paid such close attention to each sweet and stuttered breath, I should’ve stopped to paint our picture, Captured honest pure affection, Just to document the difference between attraction and connection.
I can see all of my friends and I break into empty buildings, When the coast was clear, With backpacks full of beer, We’d throw our bottles from the rooftops
At this city-it looked endless. Guess I still don’t see the difference
between real purpose and that urgent adolescence.
And I remember in a basement sharing sweat With all these stranger boys and girls, “We’ll change the world!” We sang, “We’ll change the world!” But, Nothing seems to change and They say none of them will listen, But I still see much more power in that basement than in elected politicians.
And if we get beaten by this winter, If we get strangled by regret, just let our love of life and tension
Gasp in sweet and stuttered breaths, and have them lay us in a basement,Smash some bottles on the ground, and say we never knew the difference between the feeling and the sound.
Remember not our faulty pieces, Remember not our rusted parts, It’s not the petty imperfections that define us but the way we hold our hearts, And the way we hold our heads, I hope they write your names beside mine on my gravestone when I’m dead. And when we’re dead let our voices carry on to find a better song. To find a better song and sing along - La Dispute.

The sound of hooves conspires to carry me back, while stubborn steps make stuttered progress up an ancient, narrow hill. Nothing is particularly placed, when your neighbour may likely predate you by centuries. I hear the voice of old awareness, the way that was and never will be again. So slow the idea, of everything new, that's for another world. When it happens here, it's almost unwanted, where wanderers come from all over to imagine how it was. I'm no different, just a little bit enraptured with the emotions of a time out of mind. Always ready to remember – don't mind me, refuge from the land of forgetful. Sounding off and out of reach again.
