Arthur V. Johnson — Motography’s Gallery of Picture Players (1913) 🇺🇸
Arthur V. Johnson occupies a niche in the favor of picture patrons that is truly and solely Johnsonesque. He is a man’s man and is universally liked by men.
However, that does not prevent the portion feminine of picture fandom from giving him its sincere liking, thus adding its praises to that which, already, had placed Mr. Johnson in the front rank of public favor.
His picture work covers a period of six years and was his graduation from valuable experience on the stage. The tearful melodrama was the school in which he began his stage work. The next step was Shakesperean productions, in which he supported Robert Mantell and Marie Wainwright; thence to the motion picture field with the Biograph company, later the Reliance and then the Lubin company, where he has been for two and one-half years.
He is now one of the directors of the company in addition to being leading man.
