Important Movie History in Our Everyday Lives Part One – Anna May Wong
It is interesting how so many connections are made between art today and that of a century ago -- especially in a groundbreaking film like THE THIEF OF BAGDAD. Take a look at these examples:
Did you know that the famous Asian-American actress Anna May Wong became a star after her remarkable role as the maid in THE THIEF OF BAGDAD? In 2022, she was honored with a US quarter bearing her likeness!
After her critical success in Douglass Fairbanks' movie, she was cast in over 45 additional feature films and appeared in several TV shows in the early days of that technology.
Anna May Wong is a true American success story.
