She is best known for her performances as a suicidal prostitute rescued by a stoker (George Bancroft) in Joseph Von Sternberg's The Docks of New York (1928), and as the manipulative carnival girl Carrie in the part-talkie The Barker (1928), the latter earning her a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actress.
