Alice Washburn
from the cover of:
"The Edison Kinetogram"
January 1, 1914
NOTE: This was a semi-monthly bulletin of motion picture new, with emphasis on films produced by Edison Films using Edison Kinetoscopes during the silent movie era. Alice Washburn was a silent movie actress for Edison Films.

Alice Washburn was the daughter of Judge G.W. Washburn and Sarah Perley (Strickland) Washburn, both of whom were born in Maine.

Alice studied under several of the best acting / theater teachers in the country; among them was the celebrated Leland Powers, who was quoted saying, "As a humorist Miss Alice Washburn occupies a field entirely her own, and in which her success is unquestioned."

Alice Washburn was known to the public as a comedienne because of her preference for humorous roles. Alice was known to have "an irrepressible sense of humor, keen and subtle with an unerring eye for detail in designing her marvelous costumes which constitute comedy in themselves."

Alice Washburn did not marry and remained single throughout her life. The 1920 (January 28th) Census for Oshkosh (Winnebago County, Wisconsin) lists Alice Washburn (age 59) as a patient at the Hospital for the Insane.

Alice Washburn shares a gravestone with a brother (Bennie Washburn) who died at 1 year old.
