Biography

Zelliene Virginia Rappe (July 7, 1891 – September 9, 1921) was an American model and silent film actress. Working mostly in bit parts, Rappe died after attending a party with Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, who was tried for manslaughter and rape in connection with her death, though he was ultimately acquitted of both charges three different times.
