Edward Earle — Motography’s Gallery of Picture Players (1914) 🇺🇸

Edward Earle was born in Toronto, Canada, and it was in a little town near there that he started on the theatrical career which has eventually led him to the Edison stock company.

Some of the well known plays in which he scored on the legitimate stage are The Matinee Idol, with De Wolf Hopper; The Boys and Betty, with Marie Cahill; Sweet Kitty Bellairs, with Henrietta Crossman [Henrietta Crosman], and The Blue Moon, with James T. Powers.

Although Mr. Earle has been identified with the Edison company but a short time his congenial ways and versatility have won for him the friendship and admiration of all the members of the company.

He is perfectly at ease before the camera, as is shown by his characterizations in “The Unopened Letter,” “The Hand of Horror,” “The Mystery of the Fadless Tints,” and “Sheep’s Clothing.”

His acting is natural and unrestrained.
