Born Gladys Smith, Mary Pickford was a very famous actress during the years of Charlie Chaplin's comedic movies and silent films. She started acting at age 14, and was casted and starred in many movies by director D.W. Griffith (The Birth of a Nation). She became so famous that her salary was too expensive for any film production to afford, so along with Charlie Chaplin, Griffith, and her husband Douglas Fairbanks, she confounded her own film studio, United Artists. Pickford became the first millionaire in the movie world. She was known as "America's Sweetheart" because of her beauty and lasting youth in films.
