Bess Flowers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bess Flowers (November 23, 1898 - July 28, 1984) was an American actress, by some counts considered the most prolific actress in the history of Hollywood. Known as "The Queen of the Hollywood Extras," Flowers was born in Sherman, Texas.
Flowers's film debut came in 1923, when she appeared in the movie called Hollywood. She made three films in that year, and then began working extensively, with seven movies in 1926 alone. Most of her appearances are uncredited, as she generally played non-speaking roles.
Flowers's first husband was Cullen Tate, an assistant to Cecil B. DeMille. She and Tate were married from 1923 until his death in 1947.
Her last film was Good Neighbor Sam, in 1964. She died in Woodland Hills, California.
