Why she might be annoying:

    She regrets that she allowed the studio to change her name to hide that she is Jewish.
    Her red hair and green eyes allowed her to portray Irish roles.
    Her studio released that she took milk baths to give her a more exotic image.
    As a high school student, she was so awkward that she was kicked out of her drama class.

Why she might not be annoying:

    After getting 'another silly part in a silly movie,' she said: 'I dropped the script in the fireplace, called my agent and said, they can jail me, sue me, but I'm never acting again, unless I can do something worthwhile.
    People thought I was crazy, but the money ($2,000 per week) meant nothing to me.'

    At age 14, she was class valedictorian.
    With the help of her sister, she sold over $100,000 in war bonds at the age of 12.
