The Name She Hated Precipitated Her Fall From Hollywood's Heights
In this episode, we trace the rise of a woman who remade herself from Reatha Watson into a Hollywood phenomenon and disappeared from the spotlight before she turned thirty. The episode covers her childhood in vaudeville, a string of chaotic marriages and headlines, and the relentless velocity that propelled her career - but can speed explain everything?
Person: Reatha Dale Watson (later known as Barbara La Marr)
Date of birth: July 28, 1896
Location: Yakima, Washington; later Portland, Fresno, Los Angeles
Period: 1904-1920s (child vaudeville start to Hollywood career)
Event: Carried off set at under eighty pounds while a body double finished the picture
- At eight she held a paying vaudeville audience as Little Eva, learning the discipline of nightly performance and constant travel.
- A 1913 kidnapping scandal put her name in newspapers when she was sixteen and testified against her half-sister.
- Between 1914 and 1921 she married at least four times, including a husband who died in custody three days after a bigamy arrest.
- She repeatedly changed identities and claimed a Mexican marriage with no documentation, adding layers of unverifiable biography.
- By her late twenties she was famous, immensely prolific in film, and physically depleted to less than eighty pounds while cameras continued without her.
