Happy Birthday, Ollie!


Born on October 20, 1894 in Charleroi, Pennsylvania, Olive Thomas was a star of the Ziegfeld Follies and a popular silent screen actress who was named "the most beautiful girl in the world." I just adore her. Watch Ollie's few surviving films, and you'll see why. She is moving, funny, charming, feisty, and yes, absolutely lovely. Happy Birthday, Ollie!
