Marianna Hill(I)

Because of her skill with different dialects, she got a five-year contract with Paramount Pictures.

[how she ended up playing women of different ethnic backgrounds] I always played people who were ethnic because I have some Native American blood in me. I have an unusual kind of look about me where people always think I'm some sort of person that comes from an ethnic background. And also Walter Kohner, and his brother Paul Kohner of the Kohner Agency, handled all the big European stars. So, naturally, if you were with them, it was thought that you were probably an ethnic type of person.
