Connection
Molly Malone is a Actor American born on 7 december 1888 at Wisconsin (USA)
Violet Elizabeth Malone (stage name Molly Malone) (December 7, 1888 – February 14, 1952) was an American actress of the silent film era. She appeared in 86 films between 1916 and 1929. Her father, Lewis Malone, was a metallurgist for mining companies. Her mother was Violet St. John, born in Nebraska to immigrant parents from England.
She started her movie career at the relatively late age of 29 but soon caught the eye of comedic actor and director Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle who cast her in a number of his shorts including Back Stage and The Garage plus his feature film The Round-Up. She also appeared in films directed by John Ford and Clarence Badger. Her last film was the Universal-Stern silent comedy short The Newlyweds' Pest in 1929.
Le visionnage des films encore disponibles (comme les films de Roscoe Arbuckle en 1919 et 1920) montre une très jeune femme ce qui accrédite une naissance en 1897 plutôt que dix ans auparavant. L'éventualité de deux actrices portant le même pseudonyme ne concerne que deux films.
Plutôt menue mais sportive elle tourne essentiellement dans des westerns et notamment dans les premiers films de John Ford aux côtés d'Harry Carey.

Biography
Plusieurs sources divergent quant à l'année et le lieu de naissance de Molly Malone ainsi que pour son identité véritable. Allant de 1888 à 1897, selon les biographies, née dans le Wisconsin ou à Denver dans le Colorado, de son vrai nom Violet Isabelle Malone ou Edith R. Greaves. Pour Robert K. Klepper, il y aurait deux actrices du muet portant le même pseudonyme. De la même manière, les photographies de l'actrice censées être prises à la même époque représentent semble-t-il deux personnes différentes.Le visionnage des films encore disponibles (comme les films de Roscoe Arbuckle en 1919 et 1920) montre une très jeune femme ce qui accrédite une naissance en 1897 plutôt que dix ans auparavant.
