- Claimed that her parents never gave her a penny of the earnings she made from the "Our Gang" shorts.
- After she grew up, fans who requested an autographed photo seemed disappointed when they received a current shot, so she sent out newly signed photos from her "Our Gang" days instead.
- She was the most prominent of "Our Gang" and "Little Rascals" comical female children. Her tenure, with the "Little Rascals" was from 1935 to 1941. "Our Gang" shorts were in earlier years and a majority of them are silent.
- Appeared as a celebrity contestant on Groucho Marx's Tell It to Groucho (1961) game show on CBS-TV in 1962. She was also the voice of the mermaid in the "Chicken Of The Sea" TV commercials. Ms. Hood made her last public appearance at the "First Bi-Annual Sons Of The Desert" convention at the O'Hare Airport Hotel (outside Chicago) from August 18 to 20, 1978, and she did the voice of Spanky's mother on "The Little Rascals TV Cartoon Special" in 1979.
- Once made a 1960 guest appearance on The Jack Benny Program (1950) in which they did a spoof on the "Our Gang" series, with Jack Benny as Alfalfa and Don Wilson as Spanky.
- I felt I had let [my fans] down by not remaining a child. They'd be dying to meet me and yet I could see their faces fall when I walked into the room. What do you say to someone whose fantasy has just been disturbed?
