Charles Frohman Everett and his brother, Harold Everett, were nephews of Thanhouser actress Jean Darnell and were close friends of the Foy family, well-known vaudevillians. Young Charles was the nephew of his namesake, famous stage producer Charles Frohman. Charles Frohman Everett specialized in juvenile roles and by 1918 had worked with Edison, Thanhouser, Kalem, Vitagraph, and Essanay. A directory that year noted that he was 5’8” tall, weighed 110 pounds, and had a dark complexion. He was represented by Edward Small, Inc., whose offices were in the Putnam Building, New York City. In addition to his screen work, Everett appeared on stage. In 1916 he was on tour with the Young America company, in the juvenile role of Art Simpson, and was seen in Milwaukee, Detroit, Chicago, and other cities. He was also featured in Essanay’s October 1918 release of the film, Young America, which featured the same story.
