I know this is a longshot, but does anyone know the name of this girl? She may be an actress, but maybe not. The photo is from the 1920s.

I think you might be right. I think I've seen a picture like this but she wearing a hat?

Looks like Maureen O'Sullivan. Who played Jane in Tarzan.

I don't know, but I think she needs a hug

She always looked like that, the hat I remember was a flapper hat. You, know the one that looked like a bath cap! They tucked their hair up under that anyway. That would be consistent with the death date. Just sayin.
You might do a search for silent movies about Gypsy girls.

My step-mom would know this....Her Mom was an actress way back. so, she grew up around many of those older actors in NY and Cali. And she seems to know everything about Hollywood!! It's kind of her hobby. She was even on Broadway, and knows a lot of history there.

I'll try to call her and see if I can get her to look at the thread tomorrow.

it's hard to Tell in Black & white, But the shade of her Hair Makes me think she's a red Head.

I agree looks like a Gypsy Costume.

That's what I thought too....I've been searching the net, since it's too late to call my step-mom to see if she knows.:laughing7:

I think you're as close as any.

I was going to go with Marion Davies (b. 1897).

Haha, well we've got lots of ideas but I'm afraid none of them are the correct person. I guess I could have included additional photos of the subject in question, but when comparing them to the other people, they are definitely not her (though some are pretty close! It's amazing how all of these people look alike) I believe this person will remain a mystery. Also, she may not even be an actress so that makes things
a bit more difficult. Thanks everyone!
