Lizabeth Scott
Actress -- via the L.A. Times. AKA Emma Matzo. Largely identified with her roles in film noir, Scott's strong eyebrows and husky voice were her trademarks. She excelled in such films as "The Strange Love of Martha Ivers," "Dead Reckoning," "I Walk Alone," and "Dark City." usually a femme fatale and/or a cabaret singer with a murky past. One of her last films was a late Allan Dwan Western, "Silver Lode," that was slyly coded as an anti-McCarthyism statement.
