  1. Tricky, huh? Here are a couple more letters for our supporting actress: _ _ R _ _ D E_ _ _ _ A _ _ R I _ G _
  2. Well, then, you're the Colosseum, cujas! This supporting actress appeared in high school plays and was trained at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. In the 1940s she worked in radio. Her movie career was started with a bit part as a mother in a holiday classic as a favour to family friend and director George Seaton. Following good notices for her unbilled role, Joseph L. Mankiewicz wrote a part specifically for her. From there, her active film career began, and over time she offered sage advice and wisecracks in her roles as mothers, assistants, housekeepers and nurses to the likes of Burt Lancaster, John Lund, Bette Davis, Jimmy Stewart and Doris Day. During 1951-63, she was nominated for 6 Academy Awards, yet she is one of the most nominated actors who never won the statue. She suffered a heart attack in 1968 which proved fatal. The actress' last screen appearance, like her first, was a cameo role in a George Seaton-directed comedy. Her daughter also pursued an acting career from the 1940s through the 1970s. Who was she?
