~Stars of Photoplay, 1930~
~When she first appeared on stage, Marie Dressler was far more interested in singing than in
comedy. But before she had been on the boards long, particularly after she appeared as Katisha in
"The Midado," she had gained a reputation for both. Now in her late fifties, Miss Dressler does not
live on memories, but is constantly signing new laurels for herself in talkies, notably in "Anna
Christie." Born in Cobourg, Canada, November 9, 1871, she is 5 feet, 5 inches tall, and has brown
hair and blue-grey eyes.~
