Dorothy Ford (April 4, 1922 – October 15, 2010)[1] was an American actress and model active from the 1940s through the 1960s.

She began her career as a model,[2] largely owing to her height of 6 feet 2 inches (188 cm) and a 38-26-38+1⁄2 figure.

[3] She went on to be the first woman signed by showman Billy Rose for the swimming chorus in his Aquacade at the Golden Gate International Exposition in San Francisco.

[4] After seven months with the Aquacade, she became a showgirl at Earl Carroll's, where she worked for a year and a half.

Her third and final husband was Hollis Bane, an actor who was also billed as Mike Ragan.
