Julanne Johnston on AllMovie

In films from the age of 18, former dancer Julanne Johnston hit her stride as a leading lady in the 1920s. Her most famous screen role was as the ravishingly beautiful princess in Douglas Fairbanks' spectacular The Thief of Baghdad (1924). Thereafter, her career declined, and by the time the talkie era rolled around she was appearing in bits and extra roles. Retiring at the age of 35, Julanne Johnston lived to be 89.
