10. Unchastened Woman

A still from the move Unchastened Woman, 1925. I played the role of a respectable woman who found it necessary to pretend to be a vamp.

9. Madame Mystery

This is the advertising photo for the film Madame Mystery. This silent horror film was my last role in 1926.

8. A Fool There Was

This is part one to the film that put me in the public eye. It is amazing that this clip still exists, seeing as though there are only a few of my films that weren't destroyed.

7. Cleopatra Still

Me as one of my most famous roles. I portrayed the role of Cleopatra in this 1917 hit. Once again, I left my viewers in awe.

6. William Fox and I

A poster of William and myself. I was posed in character as Cleopatra for this.

5. The Silent Silver Screen Actress Speaks!

This is a video of me on a talk show in 1936. This was the first time most of America heard me speak.

4. Movie Weekly

Me on the cover of Movie Weekly in June of 1923. I was given the chance to edit the magazine, and give it that mystifying Vamp touch!

3. New York City


A postcard of Broadway Ave. and Sixth St. during my years of theater. It looks rather hectic, does it not? This city was a much different place than the bright city of Las Angeles.

2. Hollywood 1915

This is the Hollywood sign in 1915. This was the year I went out to the city of angels, where I resigned in Beverly Hills for the remainder of my life.

1. A Fool There Was

This was the poster of the film that brought me fame. My role in A Fool There Was pushed me into the public eye, and began my career.
