Ms. Clair, a natural happy extrovert, starred in silent comedies, Westerns, and serials. She was most popular in Westerns opposite cowboy stars such as Hoot Gibson although her career was less than a decade long. She made her Hollywood debut in a series of comedies called 'The Newlyweds and Their Baby', and her national reputation was boosted by two serials The Vanishing Rider (1928) and Queen of the Northwoods (1929). In 1929, Ms. Clair was named by the Western Association of Motion Picture Advertisers (or WAMPAS) as one of 13 Baby Stars, along with Helen Twelvetrees and Loretta Young. Unfortunately for her, her voice wasn't deemed to resonate well in talkies and her career was cut short.
