Silent Film Star: Vola Vale.

Vola Vale(February 12, 1897 - October 17, 1970), she was thought of as one of the screen's most beautiful women. She began her career in amateur theatricals in New York.

Her first movie experience was with Biograph, with film director D.W. Griffith. After a month of playing small parts, Vola was offered a genuine role and was soon she performing in short reel films for Biograph.

With Sessue Hayakawa she made, Each To His Kind (1917). Before filming began it was decided that the name Smith was too common to be used by a motion picture star. She changed her professional name to Vola Vale.

She was a member of Our Club, a group of seventeen of Hollywood's baby cinema stars. Mary Pickford served as honorary president. Fellow members were Mildred Davis, Helen Ferguson, Patsy Ruth Miller, Clara Horton, Gertrude Olmstead, Laura La Plante, Virginia Fox, Colleen Moore, ZaSu Pitts, Lois Wilson, May McAvoy, Gloria Hope, Virginia Valli, Carmel Myers, Edna Murphy, and Carmelita Geraghty.
