Marie Doro, American actress (b. 1882)
Marie Doro (born Marie Katherine Stewart; May 25, 1882 – October 9, 1956) was an American stage and film actress of the early silent film era.

She was first noticed as a chorus-girl by impresario Charles Frohman, who took her to Broadway, where she also worked for William Gillette of Sherlock Holmes fame, her early career being largely moulded by these two much-older mentors. Although generally typecast in lightweight feminine roles, she was in fact notably intelligent, cultivated and witty.

On Frohman's death in the RMS Lusitania in 1915, she moved into films, initially under contract to Adolph Zukor; most of her early movies are lost. After making a few films in Europe, she returned to America, increasingly drawn to the spiritual life, and ended as a recluse, actively avoiding friends and acquaintances.

In the early 1950s author Daniel Blum interviewed and included her in his book Great Stars of the American Stage, an homage to many theater performers, some dead, some still living at the time like Doro. Blum wrote a quick and mostly accurate run-down of her life and career and included several portraits from her Broadway years. He also included an early-1950s photo for fans who remembered but hadn't seen her in decades.
