Career

Film

Ames began her film career in 1927 as a stand-in for Pola Negri.[4] Ames was soon cast in small film roles in silent films. With the advent of talking pictures, Ames' popularity grew and she was usually cast as society women, or in musicals. She made thirty films during the 1930s with her biggest success in George White's Scandals (1934). She appeared with the three leading men from the 1931 version of Dracula (Bela Lugosi, David Manners, and Edward Van Sloan) in The Death Kiss (1932).

Radio

In 1941, she was host of two talk shows on station WHN in New York City.[5] Her schedule included broadcasts at noon and 3:30 p.m. six days a week and 7:30 p.m. broadcasts on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.[5] She continued broadcasting until two weeks before her death in 1947.[6]

Television

In December 1941, Ames began a weekly series of movie-review programs on WNBT in New York City. The 10-minute programs ran on Tuesday afternoons.[7]

Personal life

Ames was married three times. In 1920, while still a teenager, she married Derward Dumont Truax, who was the son of an oil man. They had a daughter, and they divorced in 1924.[8] A later marriage to broker Stephen Ames ended in divorce on October 30, 1933.[9] Her last marriage, on October 31, 1933, was to fellow actor Bruce Cabot; they divorced on July 24, 1935.[10]

Ames died of cancer on May 31, 1947, in New York City, aged 39.[11] She is interred in the Oakwood Cemetery in her hometown of Fort Worth, Texas.[12]
