She appeared in child roles in silent films including *Ramona* (1916), credited as Baby Anna Lehr, before working as a chorus girl and dance instructor at MGM in the late 1920s. Her friend Karen Morley introduced her to producer Howard Hughes, who cast her in dramatic roles. She gained prominence in pre-Code films such as *Scarface* (1932) as Paul Muni's sister Francesca 'Cesca' Camonte, *Three on a Match* (1932) as Vivian Revere, *The Crowd Roars* (1932) and *Sky Devils* (1932). She appeared in further films through the 1940s and into the early 1950s, retiring from the screen in 1952. Dvorak died in Honolulu in 1979. *Sources: en.wikipedia.org, imdb.com, anndvorak.com.* ## On Fi1m (2) ### Performed in (1) — the average rests on these - *Scarface* (1932), Fi1m 85, as Francesca 'Cesca' Camonte — [page](https://film.one/film/scarface-1932.md) ### Also credited (1) — thanks, archive footage, uncredited - *The Hollywood Revue of 1929* (1929), Fi1m 62, as Chorus Girl from Omaha (uncredited) — [page](https://film.one/film/the-hollywood-revue-of-1929.md) ## Complete filmography (85) Every credit, newest first.
