Biography
Philadelphia welcomed Helen Dunbar on 10 October 1863, and from that day forward she carried the city’s brisk energy onto every stage and silent-film set she graced. Audiences felt her regal presence most memorably in the 1916 Romeo and Juliet, the 1924 The Fighting Coward, and the 1925 Siege, where her poised authority gave the pictures their backbone. Four decades of performances later, she took her final bow in Los Angeles on 28 August 1933, leaving behind a celluloid legacy that still flickers with quiet power.
