Fannie Ward
Fannie Ward, also known as Fanny Ward (born Fannie Buchanan; February 22, 1872 – January 27, 1952) was an American actress of stage and screen, known for comedic roles as well as The Cheat, a sexually-charged 1915 silent film directed by Cecil B. DeMille. Ward's ageless appearance helped her become a celebrity. An obituary described her as "an actress who never quite reached the top in her profession ... [and who] tirelessly devoted herself to appearing perpetually youthful, an act that made her famous".
