Silent actress Claire Alexander was born on January 6, 1897. She was best known as George Ovey's leading lady in the silent "Club Comedies". She also won Hollywood's very first bathing beauty contest. After retiring from films she got married but tragically died from pneumonia in 1927.

Claire was a lovely actress who deserves to be remembered. You can learn more about her at
