Dorothy Bennett (sometimes credited as Dorothy Hannah) was an American screenwriter, novelist, and playwright who worked in Hollywood from the 1930s through the 1940s.[1]
Bennett worked in advertising before finding a success as a playwright on Broadway. After Hollywood produced several big-screen adaptations of her plays, she moved to Los Angeles and took on work at MGM as a screenwriter. Bennett was married to Link Hannah, who she met while working in advertising. The pair, who occasionally wrote plays together, had three children.[2] [3]
