The Resume

    (November 2, 1917-June 11, 2012)
    Birth name is Therese Ann Rutherford
    Acted in ‘Waterfront Lady (1935),' ‘The Lonely Trail (1936),' ‘Love Finds Andy Hardy (1938),' ‘Gone with the Wind (1939),' ‘Pride and Prejudice (1940),' ‘Whistling in Dixie (1942),' ‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (1947),' ‘Adventures of Don Juan (1948),' ‘They Only Kill Their Masters (1972)' and ‘Won Ton Ton, the Dog Who Saved Hollywood (1976)'

Why she might be annoying:

    Her show business career began when she was only four.
    The Andy Hardy films that first made her famous seem hokey today.
    She wheedled a raise out of Louis B. Mayer by claiming her mother needed a house.
    She turned down the chance to play Rose Calvert in ‘The Titanic (1997).'

Why she might not be annoying:

    Her fame from the Andy Hardy movies made her a huge draw in ‘Gone With The Wind.'
    She had a memorable recurring role as the mother-in-law on ‘The Bob Newhart Show' in the seventies.
    Mostly retired from movies by the 1950's, she made a happy, contented life for herself outside of Hollywood.
    She said, ‘It's titillating to do an occasional film, but really, I don't need it.'
    She maintained a large fan base who fondly remembered her as Scarlet O'Hara's little sister Careen.
