Dorothy Dandridge Under FBI Surveillance Like Marilyn Monroe Case
Although Dorothy Dandridge may not have attracted as much surveillance as the late Marilyn Monroe who, reportedly, was even wiretapped at death, Dorothy did suffer the trauma of FBI spying, and she did suffer an untimely death (at 42) like HER FRIENDS Monroe and Carole Landis.
Understand that the spying enables the management of what the public sees and believes if high officials disapprove of a Hollywood star's behavior, etc.. In the case of actress Frances Farmer, the gathering of intelligence about her behavior was, possibly, part of her undoing.
If those powers that be decide it isn't time yet to allow the public to see a certain person such as an influential film star as they are, they have opportunity to interfere with the natural order of that star's life. So it's the surveillance that provides the data and intelligence to enable those in high places to predict you and maybe cut your efforts short or worse.

: Ahead of Her Time - Commentary
: Perhaps the most outstanding thing about actress Dorothy Jean
: Dandridge is she was the first African-American to be
: nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress. (1)
: Dorothy went on to become what most will consider to be a huge
: success, especially considering how she broke through
: racial barriers of the times. As one fan put it, the screen
: fairly smolders when Dorothy is there.
: Dorothy was apparently much more successful than she may have
: been given credit for since it
: appears she may have been despicably taken advantage of,
: financially, in a similar situation that the great actress
: and singer, Doris Day, found herself in. Doris Day was
: reportedly missing millions of dollars in a discovery after
: her husband died in 1968, finally sued and won at least
: some of the money back from her late husband's business
: partner - over $20 Million. (2)
: Dorothy discovered, about the time of her divorce, she was
: missing some $150,000 and was $139,000 in debt for back
: taxes. (2) When one considers she was found dead just
: before doing what the late actress Frances Farmer had
: trouble with - heading back to New York from Hollywood - it
: seems almost too coincidental that she had only a reported
: $2.14 in the bank and died under the same similar
: circumstances as actress Carole Landis, HER FRIEND.
: SIMILARITIES
: Dorothy and Carole Landis both died on a bathroom floor,
: were both expecting sums of money, or performing positions.
: Carole had accepted a role in an upcoming film and Dorothy,
: just before her death, had reportedly been assisted by Earl
: Mills in arranging comeback engagements, also.
: were both given pill prescriptions by doctors,
: both had been ill,
: both divorced,
: both deaths considered as possible suicides,
: both had reportedly been romantically involved with movie
: executives. (Preminger, Zanuck)
: They both had a future.
: Dorothy, however, is said to have suffered a rare embolism
: from blockage(s) of blood passages at the lungs and brain
: by tiny particulates of fat flaking from bone in her
: recently fractured foot. L.A. Coroner's Office. Odd stroke
: of bad 'luck'.
: FAILURES OR SETUPS
: Like the tragic circumstances which suddenly befell the famous
: Frances Farmer upon getting traffic stopped coming or going
: from a Hollywood party, it seems that after Dorothy's
: divorce a tide of financial and business negativity popped
: up. Had she not have had to move into the small apartment
: at 8495 Fountain Avenue in West Hollywood and had she not
: been alone she might have had the encouragement and funds
: to see a physician about her foot. But that's what can
: happen to people who run temporarily low on funds
: sometimes. The $150,000 missing, compounded by the $139,000
: tax debt in days when that was big change must have been so
: depressing.
: Who knows how much more Dorothy Dandridge could have
: accomplished without such a bad run of 'luck'.
