Timeline

1946

Following her divorce from Heifetz in 1946, Florence continued to remain completely out of the limelight.

1929

The unhappy experience and end result of working on Chinatown Nights (1929), which used highly experimental sound equipment, was enough to convince her to leave films altogether. By that time Florence had married a second time to famed violinist Jascha Heifetz and preferred to raise a family. The couple went on to have two children.

1925

She was well represented in that genre with Marry Me (1925), The Grand Duchess and the Waiter (1926) and The Magnificent Flirt (1928).

1924

King and Florence divorced in 1924 and Florence went on to appear for other well-known directors, notably Ernst Lubitsch, in such glossy pictures as The Marriage Circle (1924) and The Patriot (1928).

She also portrayed famous female Revolutionary War character Barbara Frietchie in Barbara Frietchie (1924), but she earned most of her kudos specializing in sophisticated comedy.

1923

Her best-regarded film of that period, was King's comedy-drama Alice Adams (1923), remade successfully a decade or so later by Katharine Hepburn.

1920

Her stylish humor coupled with a charming sensitivity put her squarely on top throughout most of the 1920s opposite such other well-tailored charmers as Adolphe Menjou, Clive Brook and William Powell. Florence's first major talking film would also become her last.

1919

They would have one child, Suzanne Vidor Parry, in 1919. King set his sites on Hollywood and the couple made the big move, financing their trip by filming travelogue footage for the Ford Motor Co. Settling in Santa Monica, the couple soon found employment at Vitagraph Studios. Florence knew actress Corinne Griffith from her days in Houston and was introduced around the sets.

DeMille, but still preferred to work for her husband, King, who had by this time established himself as a formidable director after opening his own studio in 1919. A mature, opulent presence, Florence became a huge star under her husband's guidance, operating under the banners of King Vidor Productions and Florence Vidor Productions.

With such silent classics as The Other Half (1919), Poor Relations (1919), The Family Honor (1920), The Jack-Knife Man (1920), Real Adventure (1922), Dusk to Dawn (1922) and Conquering the Woman (1922), Florence came to the forefront.

1917

Florence first turned heads portraying the tragic seamstress "Mimi" in A Tale of Two Cities (1917). Audiences took notice and the beautiful brunette was immediately promoted to leading lady status opposite such established stars as Sessue Hayakawa and chic "drag" performer Julian Eltinge.

She and Hayakawa made several pictures together, including Hashimura Togo (1917), The Secret Game (1917) and The White Man's Law (1918), among others.

With the popular Eltinge--who often out dressed his leading ladies--the actress graced the comedies The Countess Charming (1917) and The Widow's Might (1918). Within a short time she was starring in quality pictures for both William C. de Mille and his brother, Cecil B.

1916

The studio was quite taken by her exquisite beauty and quickly signed her to a contract, starting with some minor roles in such comedy shorts as The Yellow Girl (1916) and Curfew at Simpton Center (1916). In the meantime, husband King sought work as a scriptwriter and occasional movie extra.

1915

The two went on to become a romantic item and married in 1915.

1895

Houston-born-and-bred Florence Vidor was one of the great beauties of early Hollywood. But while her photogenic looks went a long way, audiences would not get to enjoy or really experience her voice as she abruptly left the silver screen after her first disastrous attempt at a talking picture. Born Florence Arto on July 23, 1895, she was the daughter of John F. Arto, a realtor, and his wife Ida. Educated in both public and finishing schools, she was also a student at the Convent of the Sacred Heart for a time. Her fate was sealed after an eventful but happenstance meeting of two local aspiring filmmakers--future directors Edward Sedgwick and King Vidor. Vidor, a freelance photographer, cast Florence in his very first two-reel picture, although she had no real designs on being an actress.
