Mae Marsh Biography

Like much of early Hollywood history, much of Mae Marsh`s biography is shrouded in mystery and the creation of studio publicity people. The story of the Marsh children being taken to Hollywood by their aunt is often told, but according to the 1910 U.S. Census, the Marsh children were all living with their parents in Los Angeles, near downtown. Registered on the census form is mother May and a step-father named William Hall. Oliver T. was 17, Mae (registered as May) was 15, Francis was 12 and Mildred was 11. All of the children are listed as "step-children." Her older sister Marguerite (registered as Margaret) was 20, and was sharing the apartment with the family along with her husband Donald Loveridge and their daughter, 2 year-old Leslie. The children - all of whom would end up in the movies somehow - were not shopped around the studios by an aunt, but by their mother and step-father.

Trivia and Quotes

Trivia
  • Although Marsh`s birth date is usually given as 1895, U.S. Census records from 1900 clearly indicate her birth date as 9 November 1894. Furthermore, the same census records indicate that her father, S.C. Marsh, did not die when she was four, as most stories have it, nor was he a railroad auditor. Rather, he was a bartender and was alive as late as June, 1900.
  • In the Spring of 1918, the 18-year-old Ernest Hemingway claimed in letters to friends and family that he was engaged to Marsh. Hemingway was in New York at the time, preparing to go to Italy as an ambulance driver with the Red Cross, and he said he met Marsh at a party. Hemingway soon said that Marsh had broken the engagement. When asked about this incident 48 years later, in 1966, Marsh said she`d wished she`d known Hemingway (see letter and footnote in "Ernest Hemingway--Selected Letters," page 8).
