Marjorie Daw

Trivia

Marjorie Daw

Edit
  • Older sister of actor Chandler House.
  • She was bride's attendant at the marriage ceremony of Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks (28 March 1920).
  • It's possible that she took her name from the title "character" of a short story by Thomas Bailey Aldrich. The epistolary story, first published in 1873, is told through a series of letters written by two male friends, Edward Delany and John Flemming. In the letters, Edward fabricates a lady friend named Marjorie Daw. Thanks to Edward's vivid descriptions, John soon becomes obsessed with her. In the end, Edward must admit to John that there was no Marjorie Daw. It's also possible that Aldrich based the title of his story on an 18th-century British nursery rhyme called "See Saw Margery Daw".
  • Ex-daughter-in-law of Lewis J. Selznick.
  • Ex-sister-in-law of David O. Selznick.
  • Upon her death, her remains were cremated at Cypress View Mausoleum and Crematory in San Diego, California.
  • Brunette leading lady, with Paramount Artcraft in the 1910s and Fox in the 1920s. Acted opposite Douglas Fairbanks by the age of 16. She had apparently been slated for a career as an opera singer, a protégé of Geraldine Farrar, with whom she appeared in Jeanne d'Arc (1916).
