- Mercy Otis Warren was a published poet, political playwright and satirist during the age of the American Revolution-a time when women were encouraged and expected to keep silent on political matters. Warren not only engaged with the leading figures of the day-such as John, Abigail, and Samuel Adams-but she became an outspoken commentator and historian, as well as the leading female intellectual of the Revolution and early republic.
Born on September 14, 1728 in Barnstable, Massachusetts, Warren was the third of thirteen children of James Otis and Mary Allyne Otis. Her exposure to politics began early; her father was an attorney who was elected to the Massachusetts legislature in 1745. Like most girls at the time, Warren had no formal education; hers came from sitting in on her brother's lessons, where she took a particular interest in history and politics. She also made extensive use of her uncle's large book collection to educate herself.
In 1754, she wed the politically active James Warren, a classmate of her brother's at Harvard, who encouraged her to pursue writing. The couple had five sons. After James Warren's election to the Massachusetts Legislature in 1766, the Warrens began hosting leading citizens in their Plymouth home, particularly those opposed to British policies. In fact, Warren herself would maintain a lifelong, though at times tumultuous, friendship with John Adams, which included extensive letters on the nature of the new republic.
An avid patriot, Warren began writing political dramas that denounced British policies and key officials in Massachusetts, notably Governor Thomas Hutchinson. Her 1772 satire, "The Adulator" (published anonymously in the Massachusetts Spy newspaper), criticized the British colonial governor's policies a full four years before Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence. Warren also published two additional plays skewering British colonial leaders, Defeat (1773) and The Group (1775.) She supported the Boston Tea Party and boycotts of British imports and urged other women to follow suit.
From the outset of the American Revolution, Warren began writing its history, which was published in 1805 as History of the Rise, Progress and Termination of the American Revolution. This was among the first nonfiction book published by a woman in America, and she was the third woman (after Anne Bradstreet and Phillis Wheatley) to publish a book of poems. Some of her other works-Poems, Dramatic and Miscellaneous, for example-were similarly influenced by her first-hand experiences with the war. Warren, who embraced the natural rights philosophy that undergirded the Patriot cause, was hopeful that it would lead to egalitarian and democratic policies in the new republic and beyond. A Jeffersonian Republican, she took a firm stand against ratification of the Constitution, which put her at odds with conservative political friend, John Adams, a champion of the document. Likely based on her personal experiences, she opposed women's lack of access to formal education.
Warren lived to age eighty-six. She remained vital even in her final years, continuing to write and correspond with political friends. - Alexander von Humboldt spent the first years of his life in Tegel Palace in Berlin, the von Humboldt family estate. Together with his brother Wilhelm, he was taught by a private teacher during his childhood. Between 1787 and 1792, Alexander von Humboldt studied first at the universities of Frankfurt/Oder and Göttingen, later at the Hamburg Commercial Academy and at the Mining Academy in Freiberg. During this time Humboldt went on several study trips. From 1792 to 1796 he worked as an assessor in the Prussian mining service, he traveled extensively and was sent on diplomatic missions. He was particularly interested in scientific research into geography and the distribution of plants. In 1796 he left the Prussian service. After completing his studies, von Humboldt undertook several trips to conduct scientific research. In 1797 he met Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Friedrich von Schiller.
During a stay in Paris, Humboldt met the doctor and botanist Aime Bonpland, who would later become his companion on several trips. From 1799 to 1804, Humboldt and Bonpland traveled to the Spanish provinces of South America: Venezuela, Cuba, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Mexico and back to Europe via the USA. In 75 days they covered 2,000 km on the Orinoco, explored the Amazon and proved that there is a connection between the Orinoco and the Amazon. In Ecuador, Alexander von Humboldt almost climbed to the summit of the Chimborazo volcano, which is 5,800 meters above sea level. Von Humboldt held a mountaineering altitude record for some time. During his trip he cataloged over 60,000 plants. He also investigated various scientific aspects: he recorded population statistics, examined political and social conditions, and was interested in geology, zoology, meteorology and linguistic research.
Alexander von Humboldt hardly missed any research area during his travels; his thirst for knowledge seemed inexhaustible. Von Humboldt continued to conduct scientific field research in the areas of physics, chemistry, geology, mineralogy, volcanology (overcoming Neptunism), botany (he founded plant geography), zoology, climatology (isotherms), oceanography and astronomy, but also on questions of economic geography, ethnology and demography. After his return, von Humboldt began working on his work "Voyage aux regions equinoxales du Nouveau Continent" in 1805 (until 1834). In 1805, von Humboldt received his doctorate from the University of Frankfurt/Oder, and a short time later he moved to Paris, where he lived mainly until 1827. Back in Berlin, he gave lectures on physical descriptions of the earth at the university there and also gave 16 public lectures at the Singakademie.
Now a respected scientist and scholar, von Humboldt began a nine-month journey to Russia and Siberia in 1829. After this trip he returned to Berlin, where he worked as a scientist until his death. He always wanted to make his scientific findings understandable to the people. "With knowledge comes thought, and with thought comes seriousness and strength." Today, over 1,000 plants, animals, mountains, rivers and products bear von Humboldt's name. - J.B. Buckstone was born on 14 September 1809 in Hoxton, London, England, UK. J.B. was a writer, known for Married Life (1921) and Jack Sheppard (1912). J.B. was married to Anne Maria Honeyman and Isabelle Copeland. J.B. died on 31 October 1879 in Sydenham, London, England, UK.
- Theodor Storm was born on the 14th of September 1817 in Husum, North
Germany, direct on the Northern Sea. As the son of a lawyer he got a
very good education (for this time, of course) at Husum and Luebeck,
and went to university for studying law between 1837-42. After the
occupation of his homeland through the Danish he flew to Potsdam, but
went back to his region in 1864. He got a job as a judge and died on
the 4th of July 1888 in Hademarschen. The importance of Theodor Storm
for the German literature is based on his short novels. Famous for at
least five of them, his greatest works, such as the "Schimmelreiter",
is read in schools until today as an example not only of literary
realism, but also of well done structure. - Simo Matavulj was born on 14 September 1852 in Sibenik, Austrian Empire [now Croatia].

Jakob Knudsen was born on 14 September 1858 in Denmark. He was a writer, known for Den gamle præst (1939). He died on 21 January 1917 in Denmark.- Billie Ritchie was born in Scotland in 1874 and joined the
world-renowned Karno Fun Factory and Comedy Troupe traveling the world
with Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel, among others. In 1914 he left
Karno and began making silent films for director Henry "Pathe"
Lehrman's L-Ko Comedy studios and then his Fox/Sunshine Studios.
Ritchie always claimed that Charlie Chaplin imitated his on-stage
character of a rag-bedecked "little tramp," although he himself was
saddled with the description of being one of the many Chaplin
imitators. In late 1919 Ritchie was injured while making a Lehrmann
comedy when several ostriches used in filming attacked the unfortunate
actor. He was severely injured, and over the next two years was
confined to his bed with serious back and internal injuries. He
eventually succumbed to his injuries on July 6, 1921, dying in bed at
his Hollywood home at 1200 North McCadden Place. He was only 42. - Sergey Naydyonov was born on 14 September 1868 in Kazan, Russian Empire. He was a writer, known for Deti Vanyushina (1974) and Deti vanyushina (1915). He died on 5 December 1922 in Yalta, Ukrainian SSR, USSR.

- In the summer of 1915, two college co-eds (and cousins) from San Antonio, Texas--Marian West and Kitty McKenna--visited New York City, and fell in with W.C. Fields. Marian, who was active in amateur dramatics, being an accomplished singer, dancer and musician, was "invited to participate in the making of the film" Pool Sharks (1915) ("University Girl Moving Picture Star" [Austin, Tex.] "American-Statesman," 10 October 1915, 20). When the movie played the Crescent Theatre in Austin, management held over the showing of the picture for a second day, so that Marian's friends and neighbors could see her perform. When she graduated from the University of Texas-Austin the following June, her listing in the yearbook (the Cactus)--evidently written by someone who was rather green with envy--stated that "Marian achieved prominence in the flittering drama by falling out of a hammock and busting a billiard cue over some boob's brain." Instead of returning to New York City and trying her luck, Marian remained in Texas, teaching at the Baylor Female College (much later the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor) in Belton, Texas for several years before marrying a member of the family who owned and operated the Denver "Post" newspaper chain and retiring into domesticity.
- Novelist Hamlin Garland was born in West Salem, Wisconsin, on September
14, 1860. His father was an itinerant farmer who kept moving the family
westward, to Iowa and to the wild and sparsely settled Dakota Territory
(now comprising the states of North Dakota and South Dakota). Garland
received little formal schooling and for the most part educated
himself. In 1884, at 24 years of age, he moved to Boston,
Massachusetts, to pursue a career as a writer. In 1891 he published a
collection of his short stories and sketches, called "Main-Traveled
Roads", and followed that with a pair of novels, "Prairie Folks" (1893)
and "Wayside Courtships" (1897). His novels reflected the dire poverty
of his childhood growing up on the western frontier, and his characters
were not the sort of hardy individualists who persevered against all
odds that the public believed populated the frontier; Hamlin saw little
of those kinds of people growing up, and his novels detailed the
poverty and despair of the frontier that he knew. The public wasn't
ready to accept that portrayal of their beloved "west", and his novels
weren't successful.
In 1893 Garland moved to Chicago and became a proponent of the
"veritism" school of literature, which stressed realism in writing
rather than the somewhat saccharine romanticism of much of popular
literature of the time. In 1917 he wrote the autobiographical "A Son of
the Middle Border", which was a critical and financial success and
spawned several sequels. In addition to novels, Garland also wrote
extensively for a variety of magazines, and in 1923 a collection of
those stories was published as "The Book of the American Indian".
In 1929 Garland moved to Los Angeles, California, where he lived until
his death on March 4, 1940. - Writer

Robert J. Horner was a prolific, if spectacularly untalented, producer/director in the late 1920s and early 1930s. He had only one eye and no legs (accounts differ as to whether he was born that way or lost them in a traffic accident in his youth), but that didn't stop him from producing quite a few low-budget--very, VERY low-budget--westerns and action pictures and even directing a few of them. Contemporary accounts of the films, and a perusal of the few that exist today, indicate that Horner would not only equal but far surpass Edward D. Wood Jr. as the absolute worst director in film history.
Horner's silent pictures in the 1920s had a reputation for being among not only the cheapest (on par with his contemporary fellow hack director-producer actor Victor Adamson, a.k.a. Denver Dixon) but also the most spectacularly inept to ever come out of Hollywood. The advent of sound films by 1930 added a new and exciting dimension to Horner's incompetence. He appeared to have only the vaguest understanding of synchronization, apparently believing that "noise" and "sound" were synonymous. Audio volume would vary wildly between scenes, literally driving the few people brave (or masochistic) enough to endure a Horner feature--invariably on the lower half of a double bill--out into the comparative quiet of the street. His films seldom took more than three days to shoot and rarely, if ever, cost more than $2,000. Even with those chump-change budgets, though, he still found it difficult to obtain financing through conventional channels--mainly because no legitimate producer in his right mind would let Horner anywhere near him--and he was forced to be "creative" in obtaining financing. This "creativity" often consisted of such tactics as soliciting donations from aspiring actors and actresses in exchange for a part in one of his upcoming films, and those naive--or stupid--enough to give him money often ended up never hearing from him again (in addition, many of these aspiring actresses also charged him with trying to solicit more than just a financial donation). This and other schemes--such as hiring actors and actresses to work in his films and once they were finished refusing to pay them--invariably landed him in hot water with the authorities, among others. He was arrested several times by Los Angeles police on fraud and racketeering charges, resulting in a string of criminal convictions and civil-court assessments against him, and he spent a good deal of time dodging creditors and tax agents looking to take him to court and lawmen looking to take him to jail. If there was one word that could describe Robert J. Horner it would probably be "sleazeball", but given all his personal and professional shortcomings, he was still able to eke out a living on the far, far, far fringes of Poverty Row, an accomplishment that many other low-buck producers down at Horner's level couldn't manage.
Horner filed for bankruptcy in February 1933, listing six silent western film negatives as his only assets. His liabilities included $29,573 owed in back taxes and a large number of unpaid-labor claims. His personal assets totaled $1,500. He attempted to make a comeback by producing a few western films for Aywon Pictures. His days as a producer ended in 1935, though, when he tried to bring silent-screen cowboy Ted Wells back as a western hero; the result was the stupefying inept The Phantom Cowboy (1935). Horner was planning an eight-film series with Wells beginning with Defying the Law (1935), which he produced for Aywon, but the "series" ended with that picture.
Robert J. Horner passed away on July 29, 1942, at the El Paso (TX) City-County Hospital from cirrhosis of the liver.- Betty Morrissey was born on 14 September 1907 in Brooklyn, New York, USA.

In his earlier days, Halliday seems to have relished the life of an adventurer. At one time he fought with the British Army during the Boer War. As a mining engineer he then dug for gold
nuggets in Nevada, rapidly made a fortune and lost it as quickly. He eventually switched to the more peaceful pursuit of acting, initially in Gilbert & Sullivan
operettas, then in dramatic plays on Broadway from 1912 to 1936 (lastly in "Tovarich", as Prince
Alexandrovitch). Though Brooklyn-born, Halliday was raised in England and often adopted an
upper-crust British accent. An incisive and debonair actor with a penchant
for sophisticated comedy, he received good reviews as co-star of
The Woman Accused (1933) with
Cary Grant and
Nancy Carroll. He was very much at home playing caddish bon vivants, gleeful
villains (such as in
Terror Aboard (1933)) or wily arch
rogues (notably Desire (1936) with
Marlene Dietrich). Halliday had another
pivotal role in
Intermezzo (1939)
and was then cast to best advantage as Katharine Hepburn's charming
philanderer of a father in
The Philadelphia Story (1940). He died in Honolulu, Hawaii, from a heart ailment in October 1947 at the age of 67.- Writer

Largely forgotten today, comic actor Moore Marriott reigned supreme for
a time in the 1930s alongside Will Hay and
Graham Moffatt in British film
farce. The trio came about by happenstance, but it was their audiences
who insisted they reappear together again and again.
Born in 1885, Marriott started off on the stage as a youngster with his
theatrical family. The dark, curly-haired natural made his debut on
film as an infant and reportedly made a number of silent films for the
Hepworth Company, but credits are sketchy. By the 1920s he had churned
out a number of pictures including
By the Shortest of Heads (1915),
The Monkey's Paw (1923) and
The Gold Cure (1925), sometimes in
a lead. By the advent of sound, however, he found his niche playing
countrified character folk. He played much, much older than he really
was (by at least 20-30 years), and audiences took to his doddering old
fool act, and he essayed a host of assorted toothless, muttering coots.
Marriott was unbilled in his first Hay comedy,
Dandy Dick (1935), but received
billing in his next film with Hay,
Windbag the Sailor (1936), in
which they were joined by the impish, heavyset foil Moffatt. With
Marriott playing his famous bald geezer Jeremiah Harbottle, the popular
trio continued to put out such wacky, nonsensical films as
Oh, Mr. Porter! (1937), often
deemed the best of the lot, and
Convict 99 (1938). Eventually Hay
severed the union, preferring to be thought of as a solo star. Marriott
supported other comedians in the ensuing years, including
Arthur Askey, but he never matched his
earlier success. He died at age 64 without ever harvesting a strong
core audience as a solo artist.- Cinematographer
