Gained 22 pounds in 22 days to play the part of Annie Lightcloud in Stay Away, Joe. Days before filming she broke her foot and removed the cast prematurely which explains her limp throught the movie. Former husband Ernest Borgnine referred to her as "beautiful, but a tiger." Was discovered by film director Budd Boetticher in 1951, when he saw her sitting in a bullfight arena while he was in Mexico filming the film, Torero. He cast her in a small part immediately, though she did not know a word of English. First Mexican actress to be nominated for an Academy Award. The second was Salma Hayek, in 2003.
