Ann Dvorak (born Anna McKim; August 2, 1911 – December 10, 1979) was an American stage and film actress.
Asked how to pronounce her adopted surname, she told The Literary Digest in 1936: "My fake name is properly pronounced vor'shack.
The D remains silent.
I have had quite a time with the name, having been called practically everything from Balzac to Bickelsrock."
