In an interview with producer Mary O’Grady, Dr. Katherine Manthorne tells the story of one of silent film’s greatest (and best-paid) creators, Lois Weber (1879-1939). Weber was proficient in all aspects of film, and she danced with the censors to deliver films about topics like exploited women workers, birth control and abortion. She was the first to use “full frontal female nudity” in a movie. She collaborated with such greats as Anna Pavlova.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
