Rescapée du naufrage du Titanic. Fille unique.

1st Class Passenger.

Embarked: Cherbourg on Wednesday 10th April 1912.

Ticket No. 112378.

Rescued: boat 7.

On 17 March 1912, having completed a series of films, Dorothy and her mother sailed for Europe for a vacation. Dorothy and her mother were inParis when they booked their return passage on the Titanic.

According to Dorothy, lifeboat 7 was virtually empty when she and her mother arrived on the boat deck. She asked Sloper and Seward to join them.

Soon after the disaster Dorothy acted in the first film ever produced about it, called "Saved From the Titanic" (in which she basically playedherself.) The movie was released barely a month after the sinking.
