Timeline
In March of 2000, she was left out of the yearly "In Memoriam" segment of the The 72nd Annual Academy Awards (2000). Ellen, who was once nominated for an Oscar for her Supporting Role in I Remember Mama (1948), had really only played small bit parts in motion pictures for twenty years, before she became a key part of television's The Waltons (1972). The Academy chose instead to memorialize another small bit-part actor in films, Henry Jones.
Her last TV appearance was in 1997 in the TV movie A Walton Easter (1997).
Corby was quoted as saying that her first acting job was in "Twisted Rails" according to the April 1985 issue of "Films in Review.".

In 1946, she appeared in 14 films, although mostly in small, minor roles.
