Pickford, who was 36 at the time of his death, made bis first stage appearance in 1909 in a production called “Peg Robin.” In 1919 he turned to the films, where his sister Mary was rapidly climbing to eminence as "America’s Sweetheart.” He was then the husband of Olive I homas, noted Follies beauty, once described as the world’s most beautiful girl, having married her in 1917. in 1920 they went to Paris on a "second honeymoon" following a separation. It was then that tragedy first entered Pickford’s life. Returning to their hotel after a party, Miss Thomas inadvertently took a dose of mercury bichloride in mistake for a sleeping potion and died five days later. Two years later, Pickford married Marilyn Miller, also a Follies beauty, but she divorced him in Paris in 1927 after a two-year separation, during which they had remained friends. In 1930, Pickford took another bride, this time Mary Mulhern, a New York actress. But again the romance went on the rocks, Miss Mulhern divorcing him last year in Los Angetes. Pickford never achieved the fame that came to his sister upon the screen, although he appeared in many pictures for various companies, and even managed his own company for a time, His death was the climax of a long series of nervous breakdowns.
