Marguerite De La Motte(1902-1950)
- Actress
Marguerite de la Motte was trained as a dancer, reputedly by the great
ballerina Anna Pavlova, and entered films in 1918. She played opposite
Douglas Fairbanks in many of his productions. Like many performers of the silent
era, however, she was not able to sustain her career with the coming of
talkies, and was soon relegated to smaller roles in minor
productions.
