Daveigh Chase

Chase also sings professionally. However, Patricia and her husband are buried with Marion Davies. Chase also works as a voice over artist, performing the leads in Lilo & Stitch (2002) and the American translation of Spirited Away (2002). (Patricia married Arthur Lake, who played Dagwood in numerous films.) After Patricia's death, her family announced that she was in fact the daughter of Marion Davies and William Randolph Hearst, though this claim does not appear to have been verified independently. Some of her major roles have been in Donnie Darko (2001), The Ring (2002), and the television series Oliver Beene (2003-2004). During the lifetime of Davies' niece Patricia Lake (née Van Cleeve), the latter was said to be the daughter of Marion Davies's sister Rose Davies and her first husband, George Van Cleeve. Chase began performing professionally at the age of eight. She is buried in the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Hollywood.

Her parents are Cathy Chase and John Schwallier and her birth name is Daveigh Elizabeth Schwallier. Her funeral was attended by old-time Hollywood legends and President Herbert Hoover. Chase was born in Las Vegas, Nevada. Marion Davies died in Hollywood, California. Daveigh Chase (born July 24, 1990) is an American child actress. She also fought childhood diseases through the Marion Davies Foundation. In 1952, Davies donated $1.9 million to establish a children's clinic at UCLA, which still bears her name.

Brown. It was not a happy marriage: Marion filed divorce papers twice but no divorce was ever finalized. Her husband was a former sea captain and policeman and sometime actor, Horace G. Ten weeks after the death of William Randolph Hearst, Marion Davies married for the first time, at the age of fifty-four, on October 31, 1951. Davies commented that the gold digger had fallen in love.

Over Hearst's objections, Davies sold millions of dollars of the gifts Hearst had given her over the years to raise money to bail him out. At one point Hearst's empire crumbled and he was about to lose everything. But there's little similarity between the fictional character and real woman. She is sometimes confused with the shrill, talentless Susan Alexander character portrayed in Citizen Kane, which was based loosely on Hearst's life.

Her last was in 1937. She was producer of ten of them. In all she played in fifty movies. Her career, however, was hampered by Hearst's insistence that she play distinguished, dramatic parts, as opposed to the comic roles that were her forte, as well as her increasing dependence on alcohol (she used to hide bottles of liquor in San Simeon's toilet tanks).

These facts are still overshadowed by her relationship with William Randolph Hearst, who was married to former showgirl turned society grande dame Millicent Veronica Willson, and Davies' fabulous life as hostess at San Simeon and Ocean House in Santa Monica. Marion outshone her siblings with a 20-year movie career, playing light comedic roles well into the 1930s and giving generous financial assistance to her family and friends. Even as New York was the melting pot for new immigrants, having a WASP surname greatly helped one's prospects. The girls changed their surname to Davies, which one of them spotted from a realtor's sign in the neighborhood.

These shows were considered the high end of Vaudeville. They all became showgirls on the Great White Way, where Florenz Ziegfeld was beginning his spectacular annual "Ziegfeld Follies" shows. The Douras family lived near Prospect Park in Brooklyn, but already the bright lights of Manhattan beckoned to the sisters. A brother, Charles, died at the age of fifteen from drowning in 1906.

Her elder siblings included Rose, Reine, and Ethel. Of Greek and Irish heritage, she was born Marion Douras in Brooklyn, New York, the youngest of five children born to Herbert Douras, a lawyer who moved in New York City political circles, and Rose Reilly, formerly of Jersey City, New Jersey. Marion Davies (January 3, 1897 - September 23, 1961) was a United States actress.
