Ramona Reed was a Hollywood starlet.

Paragon Films boss Jack Swain used Ramona Reed in a publicity stunt, after being brushed off by Green Arrow. She convinced her twin sister, Linda, that her career would depend on the stunt, so she agreed to impersonate her.

This stunt attracted the attention of gangster Big Bill Larson, who knew the girls' father was imprisoned in Minnesota for embezzlement and wanted to use the archery skills for burglaries. Linda agreed, begrudgingly, though Ramona didn't know.

Green Arrow quickly found out Ramona knew nothing about archery and lacked an archer's trademark finger bruises, and uncovered the secret after a bit of detective work. The sister switch was uncovered, and because the only burglary Linda was involved in failed, she wasn't linked to the crime.
