Biography

One of the great villainesses of the early silent era, Lillian Leighton played the hissable Wicked Witch of the West in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1910) and forced poor blind Kathlyn Williams out into the frozen streets of Paris in a three-part version of The Two Orphans (1911). She was much subdued in the 1920s, however, where she usually played kind mothers in such Westerns as Tim McCoy's The Thundering Herd (1926). ~ Hans J. Wollstein, All Movie Guide
