MARY PICKFORD: A One-Woman Play in Two Acts

Mary Pickford was Hollywood's first movie star.

She was "America's Sweetheart" in the era of silent films.

The girl with the golden-brown curls.

Before her, the names of the actors in movies were unknown.

She was also an astute businesswoman.

Along with Charlie Chaplin, Douglas Fairbanks and D.W. Griffith, she formed United Artists Pictures.

Fairbanks, in fact, became her second of three husbands.

Michael B. Druxman's one-woman play, MARY PICKFORD, is a rags to riches tale. Indeed, to very great riches.

It finds the now-reclusive actress at Pickfair, her legendary estate, as she ponders the fate of her classic silent films.

Should she have them preserved or destroyed?
