MINI BIO:
Patsy Kelly was a dynamic dark-haired American actress who forsook a career as a dance teacher to come to Hollywood as a star comedienne in two-reels and to play supporting roles in features. She often played a wisecracking maid or a gutsy, lower class girlfriend (1941, Topper Returns). She left show business in the wartime years, but returned in 1960 for some welcome cameo roles (1968, Rosemary's Baby). Kelly was never married and died from cancer in 1981.
