An American actor and motion-picture producer, who is known as “America's Sweetheart” was born on April 8, 1892, in Canada. She made many films under the aegis of Biograph, the Independent Motion Picture Company (IMP), and the Majestic film studio. Although her film image was that of “Little Mary,” a sweet-faced, golden-haired charmer who radiated innocence, Pickford was an instinctively gifted actress who could handle both comedic and dramatic roles with ease, and she soon became an international star (publicists later changed her nickname to “The World's Sweetheart”). Her notable silent films include The New York Hat (1912), Tess of the Storm Country (1914), Madame Butterfly (1915), Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm (1917), Poor Little Rich Girl (1917), M'liss (1918), and Daddy Long Legs (1919). Pickford was also a skilled businesswoman. She managed her own career with a shrewd eye on her box-office earning potential, on several occasions moving from one studio to another and in the process doubling or tripling her salary. By 1929, however, Pickford's marriage to Fairbanks had ended and her acting career was also drawing to a close. Her autobiography, Sunshine and Shadow, was published in 1955.
She died on May 29, 1979, Santa Monica, California, United States.
