Biography

Patsy Kelly (born Bridget Sarah Veronica Rose Kelly; January 12, 1910 – September 24, 1981) was an American actress and comedian known for her roles in Rosemary's Baby (1968) and Freaky Friday (1976), as well as a series of comedy shorts starring Thelma Todd in the early-to-mid 1930's.

A prominent comedian during Hollywood's Golden Age, Kelly's weight combined with rumors of her sexuality caused her to be added to a Hollywood blacklist in the early 1940's, relegating her to bit parts in movies and TV for the rest of her career.
