About this listen
In this episode, we’re going on the journey of Mary Pickford, from her theatre career to co-founding the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Known as “America’s Sweetheart,” Pickford proved her stardom from an early age. She knew what she wanted, and she wasn’t afraid to ask for it.
