  • Lillian Diana Gish
    Adrian Paul Botta ([email protected]) Lillian Diana Gish Lillian Diana Gish[1] (October 14, 1893 – February 27, 1993) was an American actress of the screen and stage,[2] as well as a director and writer whose film acting career spanned 75 years, from 1912 in silent film shorts to 1987. Gish was called the First Lady of American Cinema, and she is credited with pio - neering fundamental film performing techniques. Gish was a prominent film star of the 1910s and 1920s, partic - ularly associated with the films of director D. W. Griffith, includ - ing her leading role in the highest-grossing film of the silent era, Griffith's seminal The Birth of a Nation (1915). At the dawn of the sound era, she returned to the stage and appeared in film infrequently, including well-known roles in the controversial western Duel in the Sun (1946) and the offbeat thriller The Night of the Hunter (1955). She also did considerable television work from the early 1950s into the 1980s and closed her career playing, for the first time, oppo - site Bette Davis in the 1987 film The Whales of August (which would prove to be one of Davis's last on-screen appearances). In her later years Adrian Paul Botta ([email protected]) In her later years Gish became a dedicated advocate for the appreciation and preservation of silent film. Gish is widely consid - ered to be the great - est actress of the silent era, and one of the greatest ac - tresses in cinema history. Despite being better known for her film work, Gish was also an accom - plished stage ac - tress, and she was inducted into the American Theatre Hall of Fame in 1972.
