Marie Nordstrom

Born in Fort Apache, Arizona Territory,[5] Nordstrom was the daughter of United States Cavalry Captain Charles E.

Frances told a reporter in 1908, "... our youthful minds were entranced, whereupon we each resolved that when we grew to womanhood we were going to be actresses.

[10] Nordstrom began her career in opera, appearing in productions that included La Tosca and Madame Butterfly, Henry E. Dixey, however, persuaded her to focus her efforts on acting rather than on singing.

Although the appointment had been made for Frances, Dixey was emphatic that Marie was the woman he wanted for the production of David Garrick.

[12] Nordstrom's Broadway credits include The Sap Runs High (1936), Mirrors (1928), Sweetheart Time (1926), Fashions of 1924 (1923), Lady Bug (1922), Bought and Paid For (1921), Girl o' Mine (1918), The Passing Show of 1917, The Charm of Isabel (1914), Bought and Paid For (1911), The Devil (1908), Papa Lebonnard (1908), The Man on the Box (1905), and Henry E. Dixey and Company (1904).
