Kathleen B. Burke (September 5, 1913 — April 9, 1980) was an American movie actress of the 1930s. Burke worked as a dental assistant in Chicago, before winning a talent contest sponsored by Paramount Pictures to play Lota the "Panther Woman" in ''Island of Lost Souls'' (released December 1932), the first screen version of H.G. Wells's novel ''The Island of Dr. Moreau''. The contest, announced in July 1932, allegedly had 60,000 applicants from around the country. Burke was announced as the winner on September 29. This success led to more than a score of screen appearances over the following six years, most notably as the leading lady in ''The Lives of a Bengal Lancer'' (1935) opposite Gary Cooper, and ''The Last Outpost'' with Cary Grant that same year. Her final film role was in 1938, whereupon she retired from screen acting at the age of 25.〔(Kathleen Burke; findagrave.com ) retrieved July 29, 2015〕 ==Filmography== *''Island of Lost Souls'' (1932) *''Murders in the Zoo'' (1933) *''Sunset Pass'' (1933) *''Torch Singer'' (1933) (uncredited) *''The Mad Game'' (1933) *''Six of a Kind'' (1934) (uncredited) *''Good Dame'' (1934) *''School for Girls'' (1934) *''Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back'' (1934) (uncredited) *''The Merry Widow'' (1934) (uncredited) *''The Lives of a Bengal Lancer'' (1935) *''Rocky Mountain Mystery'' (1935) *''Mutiny Ahead'' (1935) *''The Awakening of Jim Burke'' (1935) *''Navy Wife'' (1935) *''The Last Outpost'' (1935) *''Nevada'' (1935) *''The Lion Man'' (1936) *''Craig's Wife'' (1936) *''The Sheik Steps Out'' (1937) *''Boy of the Streets'' (1938) *''Rascals'' (1938) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kathleen Burke」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
