dbpedia-owl:abstract
  • Edna Mayo, eigentlich Edna Lane, war eine US-amerikanische Filmschauspielerin während der Stummfilm-Ära. Ihre Karriere dauerte im Wesentlichen von 1914 bis 1918, als sie zeitweilig eine der führenden Darstellerinnen bei Essanay war, d. h. sie endete bereits vor dem Aufkommen des Tonfilms. Mayo war auf romantische Verwirrungstragödien wie in "The Misleading Lady " von 1916 spezialisiert. In einem Interview gegenüber dem Boonville Standard verkündete sie aus Publicitygründen, dass sie für die Szene, in der sie mit ihrem Wagen entführt wurde, doch tatsächlich ihr eigenes Automobil zur Verfügung gestellt habe. "Miss Mayo smilingly declared that if she were to be stolen away by a man who loved her she would rather it be done in her own car. " Aus heutiger Sicht ist der Film deshalb interessant, da der in vielen Screwball-Comedys der 1930er und 1940er agierende Edward Arnold hier seinen ersten Auftritt hatte. Ihr Auftritt in "Woman Hater" war wohl eine einmalige Rückkehr ins Filmgeschäft, in dem sie nur die verschmähte Braut eines Misanthropen, gespielt von Henry B. Walthall, zu spielen hatte.

It was over a year before she received another role, playing the female lead in Hearts of Love in 1918. It was her last film, and with no other roles coming her way, she retired from acting. She eventually settled in San Francisco, California, where she was residing at the time of her death on May 5, 1970.
