Betty Blythe
Betty Blythe (1893-1972) was an American actress who reached the peak of her popularity during the silent film era. She became famous in the early 1920s for her exotic and "vamp" roles, often characterized by daring and revealing costumes that highlighted her figure. Her most iconic and memorable performance was in the epic film *The Queen of Sheba* (1921), a film that became legendary for its minimalist costumes. With the advent of sound, her career as a leading lady declined, but Blythe did not leave the screen, successfully continuing as a character actress in dozens of films until the early 1960s, although often in uncredited roles. For her significant contribution to the motion picture industry, she was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
