#Quote
1[on working with Joan Crawford on The Best of Everything (1959)] "I was fortunate that there was this tension with her. Our scenes were built with tension, and there it was, even before the camera rolled. It had to have been tough for her, to have these three young upstarts - and there she was, in a non-starring role."
#Fact
1Studied dance with Martha Graham.
2Would occasionally walk Fala, a Scotch terrier belonging to former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt.
3Hope appeared on Radio-Electronics magazine, June 1949 cover wearing the "Man from Mars" Radio Hat.
4She was the niece of photographer Dorothea Lange, famous for her Depression-era photographs, including the iconic "Migrant Mother".

8As of 2014, she and Nan Martin [Amanda Krueger in A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987)] are the only deceased cast members of the Nightmare on Elm Street films.
9For two years, Lange lived in a sparsely furnished home with crates for coffee tables and only a box spring and mattress for her bed. "She put all her money into the refugee project because that is the kind of person she was", Don Murray said.
10When she co-starred with Marilyn Monroe in Bus Stop (1956), Monroe disliked the presence of a younger blonde and sent a series of memos to producers and the director, even suggesting that Lange be made to dye her hair brown.
11Made her acting debut on Broadway at the age of 11 in Sidney Kingsley's play "The Patriots".
12Lange earned the only Oscar nomination of her career for her supporting role in the provocative film Peyton Place (1957), in which she murders her rapist stepfather.
13In 1968, Lange turned to television, taking on the role of Carolyn Muir in the popular series The Ghost & Mrs. Muir (1968). She won two consecutive Emmys for that role, in 1969 and 1970.
14With her ex-husband, Don Murray, they had a son, actor Christopher Murray, and a daughter, Patricia Murray. The marriage was dissolved in 1961.
15Father, Arthur Lange, was the music arranger for Florenz Ziegfeld Jr..
