English: Publicity photo of Louise Fazenda from Stars of the Photoplay. Louise Fazenda, the comedienne of the kinky curls, was born in Lafayette, Indiana, in 1895. She was educated at St. Mary's Convent. At the age of fifteen she left school and joined a dramatic stock company to play ingenue parts, but her sense of humor and her love of grimacing behind the backs of other players soon proved that she was not intended for serious drama. She made her screen appearance in 1913 in a one-reel Universal comedy and has been busy ever since. She is five feet, five inches tall, and weighs 138 pounds. She has light brown hair and hazel eyes.
