  • Agnes Vernon (1895 – 1948) was an American film actress of the silent era. While still in her teens, she experienced a meteoric ascent from obscurity to box-office sensation. After turning twenty-three and a movie career fading away, she abandoned the silver screen forever. Vernon performed in over 90 films between 1913 and 1922. She completed most of her roles under contract with Universal Pictures. Vernon was born into a pious Catholic household in La Grande, Oregon on Friday, December 27, 1895. She attended convent schools in various cities, landing in Chicago while still a young schoolgirl. In 1913, while visiting a cousin in California, they took a tour of Universal Studios. While watching the filming of a motion picture, the film's director asked her to become an extra. At first, reluctant because she had no previous stage training, she finally agreed and took her early steps to film fame and fortune. Murdock MacQuarrie took the young actress under his wing. Vernon rose from film extra to leading lady in 6 months. She would develop fan-favorite screen pairings with actors Franklyn Farnum and Herbert Rawlinson. 1916 became her watershed year, defined by her extensive film output and the number of leading roles. In 1919, she traveled to Australia to make three films. She made her final return to America in 1922, having already married Director John K. Wells.Her rapid rise and fall all happened within a decade. She is hardly remembered today like so many actors of the silent period. (en)

  • I have visited many moving picture theaters throughout the country and learned to admire the beautiful girls I have seen on the screen. I have been wondering whether they are as lovely as they look and whether they really have hearts that could be one in real life. I have plenty of money. Would you be able to refer me to anyone who could give me some idea about this? (en)
