Biography
Mary Louise Brooks, also known by her childhood name of Brooksie,
was born in the midwestern town of Cherryvale, Kansas, on November
14, 1906. She began dancing at an early age (with the Ziegfeld
Follies) but would become one of the most fascinating and alluring
personalities ever to grace the silver screen. She was always
compared to her Lulu role in PANDORA'S BOX, which was filmed in
1928. Her performances in A GIRL IN EVERY PORT and BEGGARS OF LIFE,
both filmed in 1928, proved to all concerned that Louise had real
talent. She became known, mostly, for her bobbed hair style.
Thousands of women were attracted to that style and adopted it as
their own. As you will note by her photographs, she was no doubt
the trend setter of the 1920's with her Buster Brown-Page Boy type
hair cut, much like today's women imitate stars. Because of her
dark haired look and being the beautiful woman that she was, plus
being a modern female, she was not especially popular among
Hollywood's clientle. She just did not go along with the norms of
the film society. Louise really came into her own when she left
Hollywood for Europe. There she appeared in a few German
productions which were very well made and continued to prove she
was an actress with an enduring talent. Until she ended her career
in film in 1938, she had made only 25 movies. After that, she spent
most of her time reading and painting. She also became an
accomplished writer, authoring a number of books, including her
autobiography. On August 8, 1985, Louise died of a heart attack in
Rochester, New York. She was 78 years old.
