Biography of

Sylvia Breamer

    From Wikipedia

    Sylvia Breamer (9 June 1897 – 7 June 1943) was an Australian

    actress who performed in American silent motion pictures beginning in 1917. Her

    father was Sir James De Courcey Breamer, a commander in the Royal Navy. After

    his death her mother married Judge A.G. Plunkett, formerly of Sydney,

    Australia.

    Sylvia's initial film efforts were with Colonel J. Stuart

    Blackton films. She also performed in releases produced by Mayflower Pictures.

    Breamer came to Hollywood with her sister, Doris, in 1920. Her mother relocated

    also, residing at 837 South Catalina Street, Los Angeles, California.

    Her first Hollywood movie was Athalie, a story of

    spiritualism, directed by Sid Franklin, formerly the director of Mary Pickford.

    The film was based on a work by Robert W. Chambers. Breamer worked at Brunton

    Studios. Her work with director Franklin was released by First National

    Pictures.

    In 1921 Sylvia was signed by Director General Lloyd B.

    Carleton to make features produced by the Rubayat Press and Photoplay

    Corporation. Sylvia travelled with a Universal Pictures film crew on location

    in Truckee, California. This was during the making of Bavu (1923). The group

    left Universal City, California in an effort to complete scenes of the deaths

    of Bolshevik characters in the Russian melodrama. Among others the film

    featured actors Wallace Beery and Estelle Taylor.

    When she came west from Australia Sylvia had just divorced

    William Morrison, a director. She married him when she was only sixteen years

    old. On 1 November 1924 the actress married Dr. Harry Martin at the Glenwood

    Inn in Riverside, California. Martin, 34, formerly practiced medicine in

    Chicago, Illinois. He served in World War I and relocated to Los Angeles after

    being discharged from the U.S. Army.

    Miss Breamer was an avid horsewoman. Another hobby was

    seeking grunion at Del Rey, California. She owned beautiful jewellery. A

    diamond bracelet was taken from her just before she departed New York City to come

    to Hollywood. The bracelet was valued at $1,200.

    Sylvia Breamer died in New York City in 1943.
