Margaret Landis (August 31, 1890 - April 8, 1981) was an American silent screen actress who appeared in at least 41 films between 1915 and 1931. ==Biography== Margaret Cullen Landis was born in Nashville, Tennessee, the daughter of Lulan and Margaret (née Cullen) Landis. Her father was a stockbroker〔(1900 US Census (Margeret Landis) Ancestry.com )〕 and her younger brother, Cullen Landis, was a successful silent film director and actor. She began her career with Balboa Studios as a dancer in the 1915 film, ''Who Pays''. Near the midpoint of her career she took some time off to study art eventually returning to film work around 1921.〔(At The Key Galveston Daily News, April 7, 1923, pg. 2 )〕 Landis married at least twice, first to film director Bertram Bracken in or around 1912 and second, a decade or so later, to James Hamilton Couper (1895 – 1953), a World War I veteran who came from a prominent Georgia Coast family. Both Margaret and her brother Cullen left Hollywood soon after the arrival of sound. Margaret Landis’ last film was the talkie ''Sheer Luck'' (1931). Margaret Landis Couper died on April 8, 1981, at Alameda, California, and is interred with her husband at the Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery.〔(California Death Index (Margaret Landis Couper) Ancestry.com )〕〔( U.S. Veterans Gravesites (Margaret Landis Couper) Ancestry.com )〕〔(Motion Picture Studio Directories, 1921, (Margaret Cullen Landis) Ancestry.com scan )〕〔(Internet Movie Database (Margaret Landis) )〕 〔(How They Started - Eau Claire Leader; 17 June 1922; pg. 6 (Ancestry.com scan) )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Margaret Landis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
