Episode 21: Dorothy Arnold with guest reader Sharon Lawrence

She Goes By Jane

Dorothy Arnold, a young socialite, vanished without a trace in 1910. Born into wealth and privilege, Dorothy's life seemed idyllic, but her family didn’t support her aspirations to become a writer nor her budding romance with a man named George Griscom Jr., both of which she kept hidden from her family. With her disappearance, a tangled web of theories emerges, including rumors of elopement, a clandestine abortion, and even suspicions of sex trafficking.

This week we’re joined by Sharon Lawrence who was recently a series regular role in the Paramount + series Joe Pickett. Previously she starred in On Becoming a God in Central Florida, Home Before Dark , Rebel , Criminal Minds, Shameless, The Ranch, and Sugar. Sharon continues to be recognized from her multiple Emmy nominated and SAG Award-winning portrayal of Ada Sylvia Costas Sipowitz in NYPD Blue and as Izzy's Mom on Grey’s Anatomy. Her 5th EMMY nomination came in 2021 as Lead Actress in a digital series The Gaze. Sharon is the Second Vice President of the SAG-AFTRA Foundation. You can find Sharon on Instagram.
