Timeline

1917

Gloria Dickson was born Thais Alalia Dickerson on August 13, 1917, in Pocotello, Idaho. After her father died her mother took Gloria and her sister to California. During high school she started acting in local theater productions. When she was nineteen a Warner Brothers talent scout saw one of her performances and offered her a contract.

1924

Her father was seriously injured in a car accident in 1924. Having never fully recovered, he died in November 1926 at 51 years of age.

1930

She grew up in Idaho, but moved to Long Beach, CA in 1930.

1937

For her first film she was given the leading role in the 1937 drama They Won't Forget. Her performance got rave reviews and she was called the "luckiest girl in Hollywood". Gloria continued to get good roles in Gold Diggers In Paris, They Made Me A Criminal, and I Want A Divorce.

1938

In 1938 she married make-up artist Perc Westmore. He wanted her to be more glamorous and convinced her to have a nose job. After leaving MGM Gloria's career stalled. She could only only get small roles in B-movies like Lady Of Burlesque and The Affairs of Jimmy Valentine.

1940

While traveling in 1940, she stopped in Utah to see a friend, actor-singer Cliff Edwards. Her husband, Perc Westmore, reported her missing and she made national newspaper headlines for several days. When she returned from her trip, a furious Dickson insisted to the press that her husband had known where she was the whole time. It was viewed in Hollywood as a publicity stunt.

1941

Gloria divorced Perc and married director Ralph Murphy in 1941. Unfortunately Ralph had a wandering eye and their marriage only lasted two years.

1943

Ironically, in one of her final performances, The Crime Doctor's Strangest Case (1943), she played the wife of a man who habitually started accidental fires with carelessly discarded smoking materials. Two such scenes were featured in the movie. It was just two short years later she died in a house fire suspected to have been caused by a carelessly discarded cigarette.
