Actress

The Resume

    (August 5, 1934-September 1, 2010)
    Born in Los Angeles, California
    Portrayed Bonnie Blue Butler in 'Gone with the Wind' (1939)
    Provided the voice of the fawn Faline in 'Bambi' (1942)
    Worked in public relations for over 40 years

Why she might be annoying:

    She said, 'I peaked at five.'
    She called Vivien Leigh 'high strung.'
    The crew for 'Gone with the Wind' spoiled her with attention and toys.
    A midget double was used for the scene in which Bonnie falls off her pony.
    Because she couldn’t play dead after the fatal fall, the makeup department had to make her a mask.
    As a teenager she was embarrassed by her 'Gone with the Wind' fame.
    Her house is full of flamingo-themed decorations.

Why she might not be annoying:

    To prevent sibling rivalry, her mother claimed the role of Bonnie was first offered to Cammie's big sister, who grew too tall for the part.
    She is the stepdaughter of Herbert Kalmus, co- inventor of Technicolor.
    She said she wasn't a great actress and just worked very hard.
    She receives no residual payments for 'Gone with the Wind.'
    She holds a regular 'Tea with Bonnie Blue Butler' for charity.
    She still receives several fan letters a week.
    She said, 'I think to have been held and kissed and put to bed by Clark Gable at the age of five is one of life’s cruel little tricks.'
