Biography | Filmography

The feisty eldest child of Gerald and Ellen O'Hara, her given name was Katie Scarlett. She had a pointed chin and a square jaw, with pale green eyes tilted slightly at the ends, surrounded by thick lashes. Her skin was "magnolia white" and she had an extremely small seventeen inch waistline! (The smallest in three counties!) She was a wonderful flirt and if she decided she wanted something, she did whatever it took to get it! Her greatest dream was to be just like her mother, the greatest lady in the world, in Scarlett's opinion. The only problem was she was afraid she would miss the joys of life and many beaux by being just, truthful, tender, and unselfish.
