Fannie Ward
Fannie Ward, a.k.a. Fanny Ward 〔''New York Star'' (February 6, 1909) Vol.1 No.19 p.5〕 (February 22, 1872 – January 27, 1952) was an American actress of stage and screen, known for comedic roles as well as ''The Cheat'', a sexually–charged 1915 silent film directed by Cecil B. DeMille.
Ward's curiously ageless appearance, however, is what drove her celebrity. An obituary described her as "an actress who never quite reached the top in her professional ... (who ) tirelessly devoted herself to appearing perpetually youthful, an act that made her famous".〔"Fannie Ward Dies; Perennial Flapper", ''The New York Times'', 28 January 1952〕
==Background==
Ward was born as Fannie Buchanan in St. Louis, Missouri, the only daughter of John Buchanan, a dry goods merchant, and his wife, Eliza. She had one sibling, a brother, Benton.〔Her New York Times obituary says her father's name was John Buchman. As seen on ancestry.com, the 1880 U. S. Federal Census lists her as Fannie Buchanan, age 7, in the household of Eliza and John Buchanan. Her brother, Benton Buchanan, is also listed.〕
