A Chapter in Her Life

A Chapter in Her Life is a 1923 American drama film based on the novel Jewel: A Chapter in Her Life by Clara Louise Burnham.

She had previously adapted the same novel as the 1915 film Jewel, which she co-directed (uncredited) with her then-husband and collaborator Phillips Smalley.

Weber made this film shortly after her divorce from Smalley.

Jewel (Mercer) is a young granddaughter who stays with her grizzled, angry grandfather while her parents are overseas on business.
