ABSTRACT
THE name of Edison led many seekers of screen opportunity to ride up to the end of the Third Avenue "L" to the glass studio in the Bronx. Of the many who went at that early day to find a place in the new art of the pictures, few names remain, but there is one outstanding survival of those beginnings-a ram· bling actor by the name of D. W. Griffith, sometimes billed on the stage as Lawrence Griffith.
