Mildred Gregory

Biography

Philadelphia greeted Mildred Gregory on 19 February 1895, and by 1915 she had traded city blocks for klieg lights, stepping before the camera in Bondwomen and The Climbers. One year later she appeared in According to Law, sealing her brief but bright footprint in silent cinema. Off-screen, she wed Lawrence Palmer Brown. The final curtain fell on 18 October 1956 in Denver, Colorado, but the flicker of her early films keeps the marquee lit.
