Despite a career full of supporting roles, she later became something of a cult figure. Her memorable voice-over for the demon child in The Exorcist--The Version You've Never Seen Before (1973) has secured her place in movie history. Ironically, she took Warner Bros. to court over her being uncredited for the role, which was probably the most important in the film.

Was the 33rd actress to win an Academy Award; she won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for All the King's Men (1949) at The 22nd Academy Awards on March 23, 1950.
