| | Playbill News: Dorothy Loudon, Miss Hannigan of Annie, Is Dead at 70 |
 | | As Miss Hannigan, the tippling mistress of a dank city orphanage, she first abused Little Orphan Annie, then tried to steal her away from the loving and rich Daddy Warbucks in hopes of a reward. |
 | | She was in many ways a creature of the stage, where, despite appearing in a high number of flops, she found her greatest success. |
 | | Her success in Annie led to a short-lived 1979 television series called "Dorothy," in which she played a former Broadway star who teaches at an all-girl school in Connecticut. |
