Biography
Hailing from Washington, D.C., where she was born on April 4, 1894, Ruth Cummings carved out a dual legacy in the formative years of Hollywood as both a screenwriter and a performer. Her creative fingerprints are found on notable late-twenties productions including Annie Laurie (1927), The Adventurer (1927), and the Western Wyoming (1928). Married to fellow industry figure Irving Cummings, she remained a witness to the industry’s transformation until her death at the age of 90 on December 6, 1984, in Woodland Hills, California.
