Beautiful Barbara La Marr (1896–1926) was an American film actress, noted for her beauty and her tempestuous marital history. After some early experience in vaudeville, she became a screenplay writer, and then a performer, appearing with Douglas Fairbanks and others in over thirty movies, as well as dancing on Broadway. Her hedonistic lifestyle in Hollywood, with heavy drug dependence, led to her early death.
