Rosina Lawrence

Rosina Lawrence

Rosina Lawrence (December 30 1912 - June 23 1997) was a Canadian-born American actress, singer, and dancer. She was a native of Ottawa, Ontario.

Lawrence had a short-lived but memorable career in the 1930s before she married in 1939 and retired from entertainment. She is best known for portraying Mary Roberts in Laurel and Hardy's 1937 film "Way Out West".

She is also recognizable as Miss Lawrence (or Miss Jones), the schoolteacher in the "Our Gang" comedies from 1936 to 1937 and as Alice Lowell in Charlie Chan's Secret in 1936.

Lawrence and Juvenal P. Marchisio married in 1939, and she left acting to become a housewife. Marchisio died in 1973, and in 1987, Lawrence married John McCabe, biographer of her onetime co-stars Laurel and Hardy.

Rosina Lawrence died of cancer on June 23 1997 at the age of 84.
