Florence La Badie — Motography’s Gallery of Picture Players (1912) 🇺🇸

Flo La Badie [Florence La Badie] has just turned twenty. Piquant Flo, at that age, has many honor marks to her credit, for at the very outset Mother Nature bestowed upon her the gift of beauty and later added many gifts, chief of which are a talent for acting and a sunny disposition.

In her, artists have found the perfect model; her wondrous face and hair being depicted in various and picturesque posings on the front cover of magazine and art book.

Miss Flo is another motion-picture star to revere New York partly because she was born there and mostly because it’s such “good fun.”

She attended both public and convent schools and began her stage work in 1909 with Chauncey Olcott and later played in The Blue Bird at the New Theater.

In 1911, Mary Pickford introduced her to the Biograph management. But for some time she has been a lead with the Thanhouser Film Corporation.
