Ann Little — Motography’s Gallery of Picture Players (1913) 🇺🇸

Anna Little’s [Ann Little] best pose is that of an Indian maiden. So true is it, that the many admirers of this Kay‑Bee actress have found it difficult to believe that she is a white girl not a red-skin.

She has been able to impersonate an Indian girl so perfectly only because she devoted ever so much time to rehearsing the character and improvised little make-up touches herself, the ones that make her seem so truly the character she impersonates oftenest.

Before she joined the New York Motion Picture Company, Miss Little played for several years on the legitimate stage, her biggest experience being in stock.

Motion pictures and their scope appealed to her and she was taken on the try-out list of the New York company assigned to the Kay-Bee division and, after a first try-out, was declared a permanent member.

Leading lady, is the class in which they’ve placed Miss Little and she’s there on her own merit.
