A veteran stage actress who had appeared opposite the likes of DeWolf Hopper (husband of Hedda) in Wang and David Warfield in The Grand Army Man, brunette Helen Wright entered films in the early 1910s courtesy of her old friend Otis Turner. She later played Anna in a 1917 version of Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House. Later still, Wright lent her not inconsiderable presence to mostly potboilers including the 1918 serial The Brass Bullet, starring Juanita Hansen, and Henry King's romantic melodrama The Mistress of Shenstone (1921). A different Helen Wright (born 1906) appeared in early talkies.
