  "description": "From Wikipedia\n\nBetty Francisco (September 26, 1900 – November 25, 1950) was\n\nan American silent-film actress, appearing mainly in dramatic/romantic films.\n\nHer sister, Evelyn Francisco, was also an actress.\n\nBorn Elizabeth Barton (or Bartman) in Little Rock, Arkansas,\n\nBetty acted in many credited roles from the period between 1920 and 1934, after\n\nwhich it appears she left the movies for good. Her first film credit was in the\n\n1920 film A Broadway Cowboy. However, the film did little to improve her\n\npopularity.\n\nIn 1923, she was selected as one of the WAMPAS Baby Stars,\n\nalthough studios still preferred to cast her in roles opposite major female\n\nleading ladies. However, she managed to have her own share of leading roles,\n\nco-starring with Norma Talmadge, Wallace Beery and Conway Tearle in First\n\nNational's 1923 costume picture Ashes of Vengeance. She appeared in Maytime\n\nthat same year.The actress was still working after the transition of sound, but\n\nher name was now virtually unnoticed and Betty, who had mostly done \"B\n\nmovies\" in her career, found herself almost forgotten by the film industry.\n\nHer last film was Romance in the Rain (1934).\n\nBetty Francisco died of a heart attack on her ranch in El\n\nCerrito, Riverside, California in 1950, aged 50, and was interred at the Forest\n\nLawn Memorial Park cemetery in Glendale, California, United States.",
