Volume III: Biographies

O'BRIEN, A.E. *

Actor or actress (1914-1915)

Thanhouser Career Synopsis: A.E. O'Brien was a player with Thanhouser in 1915 and possibly with Reliance in 1914.

Biographical Notes: Note: Around 1915, Adelaide O'Brien, who lived at 500 West 124th Street, New York City, was a cabaret singer. Was she the Thanhouser player?

Note: A Thanhouser advertisement in Reel Life, August 22, 1914, attributes a role in McCarn Plays Fate, actually a Reliance film, to A.E. O'Brien, while other accounts assign the same role to Thomas O'Brien. This suggests that A.E. O'Brien was a male actor.
