Talk:Gertie Millar

message: George Graves [1876-1949], in his 1931 autobiography (page 218) speaks Of Gertie Millar being addicted to Cocaine. I don't know if there are any other sources on this. Johncmullen1960 (talk) 06:11, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: What exactly does he say?  Also, I can't find his autobiography.  Can you give the publisher name?  Cocaine ended the career of Billie Carleton, but I don't see other references to Millar being addicted to it.  -- Ssilvers (talk) 13:38, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The book is probably Gaieties and Gravities: The Autobiography of a Comedian which was published in 1931 by Hutchinson. As I do not have access to a copy I can not look up what was said. But it is a fact that autobiographies are not always reliable. I also wonder what makes Graves an expert. Maybe Millar used cocaine, maybe through Billie Carlton. Maybe she took it occasionally and should  not be considered an addict. The autobiography came out in 1931. Millar left the stage around 1918 and lived until 1952. If she was addicted she kept it well under control. JHvW 23:31, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
