Timeline
Patsy Kelly was born Bridget Sarah Veronica Rose Kelly on January 12, 1910, in Brooklyn, New York. She began performing in vaudeville when she was just twelve years old. Patsy worked with comedian Frank Fay and starred in several Broadway shows. She was discovered by producer Hal Roach, who paired her with Thelma Todd in a series of comedy shorts.
Although Patsy never became an A-list star she continued to work throughout the 1930s.
Had co-starred with Thelma Todd in a series of two-reel comedies in 1931-1935.
In 1933, she and Jimmy Forlenza were passengers in an automobile driven by actor/female impersonator Jean Malin. Malin accidentally backed the car off the Venice Pier and drowned. Kelly and Forlenza (a close friend of Malin) survived.
They became a popular onscreen team and made thirty-five films together including Top Flat (1935) and Done in Oil (1934).
She had supporting roles in Pigskin Parade (1936), Merrily We Live (1938), and Topper Returns (1941). Patsy was a lesbian and she was always open with the press about her sexuality. She had a long-term relationship with actress Wilma Cox.
By the early 1940s Patsy was drinking heavily and making headlines for her erratic behavior. She decided to quit show business and moved to New York City. She started dating Tallulah Bankhead and worked as her secretary. Eventually, Patsy went back to acting and appeared on numerous television shows.
Patsy was unusual for her time by admitting publicly that she was a lesbian. Many movie historians believe her frankness about her lifestyle hurt her acting career which all but ended in movies by 1944, until television revived it.
She was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6669 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California on February 8, 1960.
She also had small roles in the films Rosemary's Baby (1968) and Freaky Friday (1976).
Patsy won a Tony award in 1971 for her performance in No No Nanette. After suffering a stroke she moved into a nursing home.
In January 1980, she suffered a stroke which limited her ability to speak and she quit acting on that account. She moved into a nursing home in Englewood, New Jersey where she underwent therapy.
Profiled in the book "Funny Ladies: 100 Years of Great Comediennes" by Stephen M. Silverman (1999).
