Sheldon Lewis (April 20, 1868 – May 7, 1958) was an American actor of the silent era best known for his antagonistic roles. He appeared in more than 90 films from 1914 to 1936. Biography Sheldon Lewis was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He married actress Virginia Pearson on April 24, 1911. They were divorced in 1928. An Associated Press news brief about the divorce said that Pearson accused Lewis of "jealousy, ill temper and abuse." However, Pearson's obituary in ''The New York Times'' wrote "throughout the remaining years of their lives, they remained constant companions." The obituary indicated that the divorce was obtained because in that era marriage diminished a female film star's box-office appeal. Lewis died in Los Angeles on May 7th, 1958. His interment was at Pierce Brothers Valhalla Memorial Park. Selected filmography * ''The Exploits of Elaine'' (1914) * '' An Affair of Three Nations'' (1915) * '' The Menace of the Mute'' (1915) * '' The House of Fear'' (19 ...

The Perils Of Pauline (1914 Serial)
''The Perils of Pauline'' is a 1914 American melodrama film serial produced by William Randolph Hearst and released by the Eclectic film company, shown in bi-weekly installments, featuring Pearl White as the title character, an ambitious young heiress with an independent nature and a desire for adventure. Despite popular associations, Pauline was never tied to a railroad track in the series, an image that was added to popular mythology by scenes in stage melodramas of the 1800s, in serials featuring the resourceful "railroad girl" Helen Holmes in her long-running series '' The Hazards of Helen'', and in other railroad-themed Holmes cliffhangers such as ''The Girl and the Game''. The images of Holmes' railroad adventures were blended in the public mind with Pearl White's cliffhanging adventures, probably because White became the bigger celebrity. The serial had 20 episodes, the first being three reels (30 minutes), and the rest two reels (20 minutes) each. After the original run ...
