Biography

O'Dare was born on Staten Island to Niels Aarup and Augusta Geshke, both of whom hailed from Denmark. She was one of the youngest of the couple's many children, most of whom were born back in Denmark.[1] She graduated from San Pedro High School.[2]

O'Dare had lead roles in films for the L-KO Kompany. Her films included In the Balance, For Life and The Vanishing Dagger (a serial).[3]

In 1920, O'Dare married oil engineer Albert O. Pegg in Bakersfield, California.[2][4] and later (after their divorce) to Jack Wells.
