MINI BIO:
After several years in minor roles, Betty Bronson was 'discovered' and given the title role in Peter Pan (1924), which she played to the hilt. She never reached that pinnacle again, although she did appear in Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ (1925), an epic that cost over $4,000,000 to produce, and in Al Jolson's The Singing Fool (1928). Other films include Are Parents People? (1925), The Cat's Pajamas (1926), The Medicine Man (1930) and The Yodelin' Kid from Pine Ridge (1937).
