~ nee in a while 1t happens that
an actress wins success and
popularity without the usual
struggle At the foot of the ladder.
Mary Nash Is one. Her father was a
well known theatrical producer, and
she, with her sister Florence. took nat
urally to the stage, but they never al
lowed their liking for their work to
separate them from a delightful home
atmosphere.
All this is by way Of explaining that
Mary Nashs progress has been steady
and pleasant rather than a series of
spectacular successes and fallbacks.
She first came into prominence when
she played the role of telephone girl in
David Belasco's production of "The
Woman" She was thereafter an ac-
tress to be reckoned with. 1t was a
long time before another as suitable
part came her way, and she filed in
the time studying. She was leading
woman in THE Lure" but the role
was not too congenial. Then she tried
out other parts, but for some little
time without finding one in which she
could feel she was altogether we'll
cast. Finally along came Grace George
with her repertoire project. and Miss
Nash was fortunate enough to be
chosen a member Of that select coterie
at the Playhouse. The roles assigned
to her fitted her like the proverbial
glove, and one OF them, that Of Vida
PhHlamore. the divorce. in THE New
York Idea" gave her the real opportu-
nifty of her life. which she ably
grasped. She made a distinct hit, and
the public recognized that Mary Nash
had made a long stride forward in her
profession. William A. Brady recog-
nized this also, and as a reward for her
work in Miss Georges company pre-
sented her with the role OF Narcotic in
THE Man Who Came Back"
Following a run Of fifty-seven weeks
In New York and a years tour in this
play Mr.. Brady reengaged Miss Nash
for II. o. o." and she Is now to be
seen in THE Great Chance"
