MARY PICKFORD:QUEEN OF THE MOVIES
Mary Pickford: Queen of the Movies HardcoverĀ by Christel Schmidt (Editor, Contributor)Ā ā Illustrated, November 1, 2012. In the early days of cinema, when actors were unbilled and unmentioned in credits, audiences immediately noticed Mary Pickford.

In this engaging collection, copublished with the Library of Congress, an eminent group of film historians sheds new light on this icon's incredible life and legacy.
