  3. Theda Bara, ‘The Vamp’

    The studios created a fictitious persona for Bara as a woman born in the Sahara ‘in the shadow of the Sphinx’ to an Italian Sculptor father and a French mother. They created an heir of mystery claiming she dabbled in the occult. Her contract requite that she wear a veil in public and only come out at night. They even mentioned the fact that her name was an anagram for ‘Arab Death’

    Bara made more than 40 films in her career, but most were lost in the 1937 Fox vault fire and only 6 of her completed films remain.
