Helen Lindroth

Biography

A pioneering screen actress, dark-haired Helen Lindroth had spent 15 years in the legitimate theater prior to signing on with the old Kalem company in 1912. Quickly establishing herself as the company's reigning "character woman," Lindroth appeared in numerous one and two-reelers, many filmed on location in Florida and often depicting Civil War themes. In 1912, she played Martha in Kalem's much publicized multi-reel From the Manger to the Cross, filmed on location in Palestine by ace director Sidney Olcott. The latter would remember Lindroth long after the demise of Kalem and she was prominently featured in such melodramas as The Right Way (1921) and The Humming Bird (1924). - Hans J. Wollstein, Rovi
