Helen Case is a Hoosier and takes pride in the fact, especially on the occasions of her being credited with “having been endowed by nature with beauty and a sweet disposition.”

Furthermore she is gracious and graceful; nature, Chicago and New York being respectively credited.

Comic opera was her first step in stage work, soubrette parts being assigned her in musical comedy and, later, in grand opera.

Her artistic dancing and pleasing voice made her a favorite and she went from company to company, playing with Raymond Hitchcock, Charles Myers, Sallie Fischer and Jack Barrymore [John Barrymore].

Then a serious illness took her from the stage and put an end to her dancing. But she “came back” by way of dramatic stock and the Vitagraph company in New York.

Being an expert horse-woman, she was sent west and later connected with the “101” Bison company where she is charming in leading roles.
