Eleanor Blanchard — Motography’s Gallery of Picture Players (1914) 🇺🇸

Eleanor Blanchard, with twelve years’ experience upon the legitimate stage and five years in the motion picture studios, is certainly qualified to be one of the most useful character actresses of the Lubin plant.

Miss Blanchard is not only an American but per extreme a quaker, born in Philadelphia. She does not state when — says it is none of our business. However, vital statistics are not as important as earnest endeavor and ability.

She is a student and a writer of stories and photoplays.

Her preference in roles is comedy especially of the Dickens type. Her political views are “Leave it to the men, it is not a woman’s work.”

She is an actress and that is enough employment for any normal mind. Miss Blanchard is in the company directed by Col. Joe Smiely and has the opportunity of appearing in many of the Lubin feature pictures. She has become a great favorite with the “fans.”
