Silent film star, first in the industry to get actual promotion billing at a time that no actor did.
She represented the dark, mysterious, sensuality.
I remember being maybe 13 or 14 year old at an antique show, came across a stand selling old postcards,etc. That was my introduction to her. Dark hair, coal rimmed eyes, with a softness sensual image. I wanted to be like her, to look like her.
Guess we can call her the original gothic goddess.
Saddly last I heard only 2 of her at least 40 films still exist. Hopefully someone well stumble across in a storage archive an unknown reel and it will be one of her's.
