Una's mother's maiden name was Hoxsie.
The Indiana Gazette (Indiana, PA.), Wed., Jun. 23, 1920, P. 11, Col. 1, paragraph 2
Excerpt from FEATURES OF MOVIE LAND
Una Nixson Hopkins, art director at the Realart studios, has evolved a Spanish-California interior for the second Wanda Hawley picture, which is a composite of six historic old ranches. “We searched Southern California,” said Mrs. Hopkins, and finally combined the best points of those most typical into one set. By doing this we will give the East at one view an understanding of California’s distinctive decorative school.”

One of Hollywood's few women art directors in the silent era, Iowa-born Una Nixson Hopkins (sometimes spelled "Nixon") began her screen career in 1915 designing sets for the Oliver Morosco Photoplay Company in Los Angeles. Later switching to another firm releasing under the Paramount umbrella, Realart, Hopkins designed sets for such feature films as Food for Scandal (1920), starring Wanda Hawley, and Mary Miles Minter's Judy of Rogues' Harbor (1920). Hopkins seems to have left the film industry in the mid-1920s.
