MINI BIO:
Tough but hopeful; those were the characters that this fair-haired American actress played in her heyday, even before she became world famous as the "oomph girl." She'd been kicked around, but was still an optimist: the mold suited the wartime years, and the wide-faced, mockingly-smiling star herself, who had appeared in numerous small roles before hitting the big time. Married to Edward Norris (1911-2002) from 1936 to 1939 and George Brent from 1942 to 1943, first and second of three. Died from cancer.

She was honored with one star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in the category of Motion Pictures. Sheridan was never nominated for an Academy Award.
