Life[]

Born Rose Douras in Brooklyn, New York, she was the sister of the actresses Marion Davies and Reine Davies but did not reach the same fame as her two sisters. However, her name was mentioned in different circles briefly when she was said to be the mother of Patricia Lake by her first husband, George Barnes Van Cleve. After the death of Patricia Lake, Lake's family announced that Lake was in fact the daughter of Marion Davies and William Randolph Hearst, born secretly during a trip abroad between 1920 and 1923.^[1]

Davies, who had little film experience, was selected to play the title role in the film Alice, which began production in 1924.^[2]

Davies married Louis Adlon who was an American, German-born motion picture actor. He died March 31, 1947. She died in 1963 in Bel Air, California. She is buried beside her sister Marion in the Douras mausoleum along with Marion's husband Horace Brown, as well as with Patricia Lake and her husband, actor Arthur Lake.
