Dolores del Rio, (August 3, 1905 - April 11, 1983), was considered one of the most beautiful actresses of her time and the first Mexican movie star with international appeal and had a meteoric career in 1920s Hollywood (an extraordinary accomplishment for an Hispanic female on those years). She was a star in Hollywood films during the silent era and in the Golden Age of Hollywood. Dolores del Rio became a prominent actress in Mexican films. Her career flourished until the end of the silent era, with success in films such as Resurrection (1927), Ramona (1928) and Evangeline (1929). |
The 1920s - 1940s are most interesting to me. There was the Roaring Twenties, Black Thursday, the Depression, Volstead Act, Women's History; the list goes on and on. I also find the Gregorian, Victorian, Edwardian era interesting as well. I hope you enjoy your visit!
