Dorothy Adele DeBorba (March 28, 1925 – June 2, 2010) was an American child actress of Portuguese descent who was a regular in the Our Gang series of short subjects as the leading lady from 1930 to 1933.

With her trademark curls and elaborate hair bows, Dorothy quickly became an audience favorite.

Her mother made those bows and would spend two hours every night brushing and putting Dorothy's hair up in curlers.

Although she stated that "the boys [in the series] were given all the best lines," in Love Business Dorothy has some of the funniest lines in the entire series, delivered while Chubby is practicing his seductive patter on an oversized cutout poster of Greta Garbo in front of a movie house: This "smart-alecky compulsion" earned her the nickname "Echo" at the Hal Roach Studios.

DeBorba graduated from Van Nuys High School[1] and then worked at Republic Pictures as a secretary.
