Beverly Roberts, R. I. P.

Actress Beverly Roberts dies: "Beverly Roberts, who played rugged dames in Warner Bros. potboilers of the 1930s, died July 12 in her sleep of natural causes in Laguna Niguel, Calif. She was 95.

Roberts was spotted singing in a New York nightclub by a Warners talent scout. She went on to appear opposite Al Jolson in 'The Singing Kid' (1936), with Humphrey Bogart in 'Two Against the World' (1936) and with Pat O'Brien in 'China Clipper' (1936)."

I'm a little late on this one.
Hat tip to Toby O'Brien.
