Miss DuPont

Birthday: 1894-04-26 | Place of Birth: Frankfort, Kentucky, USA

Miss DuPont (April 28, 1894 – February 6, 1973) was an American film actress and fashion designer. Sometimes credited as Patty DuPont, Miss DuPont was born as Patricia Hannon in Frankfort, Kentucky, though sources sometimes state her place of birth as Frankfort, Indiana. She appeared as a wealthy and naive American woman seduced by Erich von Stroheim's odious count in Foolish Wives (1922). Although Stroheim is credited with discovering her, she had already made several films beginning in 1919 with The Day She Paid. Miss DuPont died in Palm Beach in 1973.
