American actress and singer (1888–1984) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dolores Cassinelli (July 4, 1888[1] – April 26, 1984)[2] was an American film actress and singer.[3] She appeared in 69 films between 1911 and 1925.
Born in New York City, Cassinelli and her family moved to Chicago. Her parents put her in a convent with plans for her to become a nun, but she preferred to become an actress.[4]
By 1929, Cassinelli had left acting and turned to singing professionally. She said that she would return to films only if she could make a singing film, "for radio is my life now".[5]
She is interred at Holy Redeemer Cemetery in South Plainfield, New Jersey.
