Height: 6'
Quotes: [when asked how he kept so slim] "I highly recommend worrying. It's much more effective than dieting.", [speaking in 1929] "Unfortunately, or perhaps it is fortunate that I have always been forced to stand on my acting ability. I haven't a personality such as Jack Gilbert's, for instance, that attracts women and makes them like me for myself. When I am on the screen I must make them forget me entirely and think only of my acting.", "My friends have stood by me marvelously in the ups and downs of my career. I don't believe there is anything more worthwhile in life than friendship. Friendship is a far better thing than love, as it is commonly accepted.", "I do not hold that because the author did a bad job of writing the player need trump it with the same kind of acting. When I go into a picture I have only one character to look after. If the author didn't do him justice, I try to add whatever the creator of the part overlooked.", "I have never gone into a picture without first studying my characterization from all angles. I make a study of the fellow's life and try to learn everything about him, including the conditions under which he came into this world, his parentage, his environment, his social status, and the things in which he is interested. Then I attempt to get his mental attitude as much as possible.", "There is more money in being liked by an audience than in being disliked by it. The biggest thing about movie audiences is the sympathy they give characters on the screen. But the art of acting and the talent of selecting what one will act are divorced qualities."

The cracking Broadway adapt for the stage actress and taciturn scene megastar Elsie Louise Ferguson be born by the haunch of August 19, 1883 in New York City, the solely child of prominent advocate Hiram Benson Ferguson and his wife. Due to her father's comfortable circumstances, hers was a pleased swaying years, in spite of this she engineering a penchant in stay of socialism in her tardy thirties. Educated in Manhattan, Elsie made her thespian debut via plan of a chorus girl in the tuneful hilarity "The Belle of New York" at the Madison Square Theatre in 1900. Her fluctuating flirtation beside the stage was connected to a buddy importune her to bring mutually the chorus, which she act upon out of prying. She also was a chorus girl in "The Liberty Belles" the following year. Allowed to verbalize one drizzling in "Belles," she made aware her awareness to become a stage actress. Elsie was to some extent striking, above and elapsed as adept, and she work her track up from the chorus to become a Broadway star for three decades. She made her Broadway debut, proper, at the close of 1903 in the musical The Girl from Kay's at the Herald Square Theatre. In 1904, she after appear in the cavort "The Second Fiddle. Between the event Elsie appeared on Broadway in the musical "Miss Dolly Dollars" and in Arthur Conan Doyle's play "The Brigadier," one of the leading scandal that mag batter America to its soul occur. On June 25, 1906, Pittsburgh millionaire Harry K. Shaw, the husband of Elsie's friend Evelyn Nesbitt, shot and kill prominent architect Stanford White while he was attending a common people ceremony at the Garden Theatre positioned atop Madison Square Garden, the penultimate arena stance that identify lacking a distrust to be found on New York City's Madison Square. White's Garden, which he enjoy designed, house the Madison Square Theatre, where on earth Nesbitt had appeared in the 1903 musical "The Girl from Dixie." Though the bear out was her final axiom in a legal Broadway amount produced, she had quicker be appear in thinness show for White, the man whom she call "Stanny," at his spectacular multi-floor apartment snug filling the Garden building's steeple, done which the rooftop theater sit. White had diary basic espy the babyish red-headed female would become his mistress and Lorelei in 1901, when she was in the chorus of the musical "Florodora" at Broadway's Casino Theatre, in a time when girls from the leg-line be as foremost as supermodels be today. The Pittsburgh inspired was 16 years outmoded. Before taking to the stage, she had made her flesh and blood as a quintessence for artist and photographers. After an preparatory cut, White play sugar daddy to her and her family, ultimately purloin Nesbitt's maidenhead in an creation the most of she variously describe as a rape and seduction. Many man, as all right as the young John Barrymore, who proposed to her, woo Evelyn. But White intervene, and she become enmeshed with fellow Pittsburgh native Thaw, an emotionally hot-tempered man addicted to cocaine and morphine, who had despicable White for years, in the red to whichever snub involving showgirls that had transpire since any man had made the fiery young redhead's acquaintance. White, something of a Humbert Humbert, leisurely cooled towards the maturing Evelyn, though he static played sugar daddy to her. Gradually, he take up with other, younger chorines, and Evelyn, who had revealed the account of her affair to her other suitor, made a "reluctant" marital to Thaw. She did hence even though her horror of the man, who had a disorderly and peculiar streak that had expressed itself once in his hammering her with a dog lash during a sojourn in Europe. Evelyn moved to Pittsburgh, but she was ostracized from society due to her reputation as a showgirl. Theatrical contact simply were not well-dressed in those halcyon days of Victorian morals and mores. She shoot her bored and private, public consideration was careful of her husband, who was prone to tantrums and fits or bluster. During a planned1906 crossing to Europe, she and her husband stopped departed its sell-by date in New York, where they, inadvertently, meet up with Evelyn's earlier lover. It was a stumpy time ago a event of time before Thaw stalked White to the sybaritic aerie atop his Garden and locate three missiles into his obverse. Adam had murder his Eve's snake, all in the name of "the unwritten law" that held a man had the apt right to slay his wife's seducer. The grip had a pen morning. Nesbitt became agreed as "The Girl in the Red Velvet Swing" when the communication of her private whoopee-making with White became public knowhow. The press revealed the double-life of the esteemed architect, who was unmasked as a libertine and voluptuary who mutual the essence for showgirls with the Gilded Age plutocrat with whom he hobnobbed. They mass-circulation rag jog over-sentimental, hand-wringing and utterly salacious article something resembling the other showgirls whom White had corrupted, all the while inveighing in hostility the corruption of show people while doing their most select few to profit by it by. Anthony Comstock, for 30 years the Lord General Cromwell in America's try hard against dirt in the mail, praise Thaw for avenge his wife's honor, claim that America would be chief off with more Thaws taking the imperative into their individual hand and execute "the unwritten law." President Theodore Roosevelt reportedly fixedly follow the shield in the media. Unfortunately, the press drag Elsie into the scandal gyratory right to be heard the stabbing, an affair immortalize in the periodical, motion picture and Broadway musical "Ragtime." A magazine columnist revealed that Elsie had known about her friend Evelyn's affair with White, which bring annoying renown. The two Thaw murder trial (the first one have done with with a hang jury) constitute the first "Trial of the Century" in that untried century, and Elsie was anxious to thwart peculiar subpoenaed as a observer as it could generate more desperate hard endow. To be tarred as one of the voluminous showbiz girls the press was reveling in, boost its circulation while sanctimoniously condemning their immorality while blanket their washed out page with the frail on their antics, could prove life-threatening to a carry out in those more-outwardly Puritanical times. Elsie prescribed an award to pocket leave in "The Earl of Pawtucket" at the London Playhouse in England, which prove to be a whack. Returning to her burrow pastoral, she appeared in melodramas on Broadway, such as Edgar Selwyn's "Pierre of the Plains" in 1908. The subsequent year, she was hail for her performance in the gong role of "Such a Little Queen." In the following decade, she became the 'Toast of Broadway' and earn the reputation as 'the most beautiful woman on the oral stage.' Elsie rejected offer from pictures producers as she considered the original photoplays of her time to be hard-up to the stage. She prolonged to act on Broadway, appearing in a strand of success, including the resurgence of "Arizona." She decorous herself playing Portia in front of Shylock of the great English tragedian Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree in a 1916 production of "The Merchant of Venice." Elsie next appeared as the eponymous heroine of "Shirley Kaye." At this time, she surrender to the blandishments of Paramount-Artcraft sachem Adolph Zukor, who had offered her a enormously lucrative three-year compact that would retribution her $5,000 per week to appear in 18 pictures. Maurice Tourneur helmed her fist picture for Paramount, "Barbary Sheep" (1917), which also feature the movie debut of George M. Cohan, later immortalized on film in James Cagney's Oscar-winning revolve as the master showman in "Yankee Doodle Dandy" (1942). Initially, Elsie hated the suffer, but she had a angelic method affinity with Tourneur, who became her favorite queen during her relatively summarizing movie career. She later tell an interviewer, "I shall never forget my situation of mind during the making of `Barbary Sheep.' My experience before the camera was the most moody article I have ever known in energy. It seem to me that the secondary black storage place became a whale that was leering and scoff at my weedy pains to join an highness before it. I go home crying. But the next morning I return.... It be so definite and not by any means as I looked-for.... I am beneficial in being underneath Mr. Maurice Tourneur's direction and consider I shall in a minute appearance upon the work as blandly as those to whom it have become a dependence, though very soon it is quite fantastic." Maurice Tourneur relay a sketch about Elsie's debut in films in an interview in a Paramount atmosphere editorial column. "Downstairs the studio executive declared 'Miss Ferguson is a phenomenon. When she come over here the first day, she cleanly said, 'I don't know film work, but I'm of a mind to swot.' Other star and stage folk ascend in with that 'I-know-it-all-need-no-director-look-who-I-am' air, and their first blind work shows how little they actually know." Tourneur predict that Elsie would become a major star due to her attractiveness and talent. "Barbary Sheep" was a hit with critic and audience, and Tourneur directed her next two pictures, "The Rise of Jenny Cushing" (1917) and "Rose of the World" (1918), the latter of which Elsie declared was her favorite among her first abdication of pictures. In 1918, Tourneur also directed her with less significant numeral stellar grades as Nora Helmer in a cinematic adjustment of Henrik Ibsen's work of genius "A Doll's House." It was the third movie publication of the play, which had also been film in 1911 and 1917, the latter with Dorothy Phillips as Nora and Lon Chaney as Nora's punisher, Nils Krogstad. Ibsen's masterpiece had been regularly revived on Broadway since its New York debut in 1889, starring the like of the great Ethel Barrymore and Alla Nazimova, who portray the tragic heroine three times on Broadway relating and 1907 and 1918. (The flamboyant Nazimova would play the role in her individual adaptation of the play in Charles Bryant's 1922 film version, co-starring Alan Hale, the father of The Skipper from "Gilligan's Island," as her Torvald.) Elsie had not even so played in anything with the gravity of Ibsen, on stage or screen. The photoplay, which was changed from the play but retained the flat story, unfulfilled both the director and his star, and it flop at the box charity. As the `Moving Picture World' had documented about the anticlimax of the 1917 version to subsist capable of Ibsen's play, "[T]he majestic shades of end in the dialogue without the aid of lecture render the mission of the actor in the genus doubly frozen...." If the great pantomimist Chaney could not put the meaning across, it is wary that Elsie and her less stellar political cast could, which inevitable abet the failure of her picture.. Marshall Neilan directed her in a remake of her old stage hit "Pierre of the Plains," which had first been filmed in 1914 by the Selwyn brothers, called "Heart of the Wilds" (1918), while George Fitzmaurice directed her in four films. A cult maven, Elsie earned the sobriquet "The Aristocrat of the Screen" for her frequent portrayal of aristocrats and dignified society women in her pictures. Elsie refuse Paramount's offer for a new, more lucrative contract, and returned to the Broadway stage with the play "Sacred and Profane Love" (1920), which was a gigantic hit. In this extent, she admit to an zest in socialism in an October 1921 `Motion Picture Magazine' interview. "All the while, the interior classes and the degrade classes, people are struggling and tormenting and fret their live away over question of goods and education for their brood and the wherewithal for the essentials of life. When a man has accumulate higher than, say, a million, the money made should revert backside legs to those who have contribute to the amassment." The acknowledgment is odd, not because of her rich environment and lifestyle, but because the United States had been in the traction of its first "Red Scare' for two years. Paramount manage to figure Elsie to a two-year, four-picture contract in late 1921, and she filmed a movie version of her stage glory, "Sacred and Profane Love" (1921), with director by William Desmond Taylor, a man who himself would crash down object to a videotape at the well of 1921, as had Stanford White almost two decades earlier. Supporting musician Maxine Elliott Hicks, who described her former female in "Love" as `ritzy' in a 1990 interview, said, "She wouldn't allow any personage on the group, including Momma, but she was a admire to me." George Fitzmaurice directed her in a screen adaptation of George du Maurier's new-fangled "Peter Ibbetson" called "Forever" (1921), co-starring Wallace Reid, the silent movie superstar addicted to morphine who would overrun away in an asylum in January 1923 while withdrawing from narcotics. Containing her best screen performance, this third film of her two-year Paramount contract was a ample hit, as was her last, "Outcast" (1922). She then returned to the Broadway stage in the 1923 hit "The Wheel of Life," but she refused Paramount's offer of a new contract, which would have built-in film her most recent success. She instead appeared in "The Grand Duchess and The Waiter" on Broadway. Elsie would later take her "Wheel" and "Duchess" co-star, British stage thespian Frederick Worlock, as her third husband. Earlier, she had been married to businessman and Adams Express Co. descendant Frederick C. Hoey, then married shield executive Thomas Clarke, Jr. in the mid-1910s. Elsie disparate Clarke in the late 1920s, married Warlock, and then shortly divorced him in 1930. But that lay in the proposed. After appearing in a supporting role to Adolphe Menjou and Norma Shearer in the Monta Bell-directed movie "Broadway After Dark" for Warner Bros., she made a new silent flicker, Vitagraph's "The Unknown Lover" (1925), a film she detested and would never contest. Elsie continued her stage career with great success through the decade, but retire at the end of the Roaring `20s. Five years later, she appeared in First National Pictures' "Scarlet Pages" (1930). The movie, a talkie, was base on the play of like name that Elsie had appeared in on Broadway in 1929. The 47-year-old actress played a lawyer defending a daughter accuse of murder. Elsie's speaking voice on film was lower-pitched than her fan expected, but she had plain and literal enunciation, as did man of the stage actors dragoon into the talkies in that period. Her first talkie would prove to be her last appearance on film. Elsie's friend Lowell Sherman, who was nascent a cinematic version of William Makepeace Thackeray's "Vanity Fair" at R.K.O. for David O. Selznik's friend and future hardy partner, multi-millionaire John Hay "Jock" Whitney, cast her as the Duchess of Richmond. The movie, "Becky Sharp" (1935), made cinematic ancient times as the first tine film shot in three-strip Technicolor. It was not directed by Sherman, nevertheless, as he die before filming commence and was replace by Rouben Mamoulian. With her friend gone, Elsie drop out of the film, and Billie Burke played the Duchess instead. On March 17, 1934, the 51-year-old Elsie married wealthy Irishman Victor Augustus Seymour Egan. They procure a processing plant in Connecticut that same year, where she spent her retirement. They also maintain a home in France. Elsie came out of retirement to appear on Broadway in the 1943 production of "Outrageous Fortune," which was a hit with the critics, but a flop at the box office, playing only 77 performance. She retired from acting for good, split her time between Connecticut and France. Elsie's husband, Victor Egan, died in France in 1956. Widowed for five years, Elsie died at the age of 78 on November 15, 1961. With no surviving heir, she disappeared $1,000,000 to New York City's Animal Medical Center. None of Elsie Ferguson's silent films are known to be within, although a 35mm print of "Forever" (1922) that had been own by Dorothy Davenport Reid, Wallace Reid's widow, may have made it into the hands of a private accumulator. Her matchless talkie, "Scarlet Pages," do exist and is part of the Time-Warner library of films. It occasionally is shown by the cable movie lattice Turner Classic Movies and deposit the sole heritage of this great actress' spectacular career in the first part of the last century.
