DAVID SMITH

 

From Who's Who on the Screen (1920)

David Smith came into fame as a director of big, special Vitagraph productions. Prior to "The Courage of Marge O'Doone" his latest and biggest, a James Oliver Curwood story, many of the most famous stars of screendom answered to the call of his megaphone. His ability in handling grizzly bears, wolves, huskies and other wild animals has also helped to build up his reputation as a successful director of great out-door pictures. Mr. Smith is now at work on another super-production, the first of s series that will claim his time and genius during the coming year. If you should ask Mr. Smith what his chief diversion was he would reply: "Making pictures, of course! I have spent years in the game and to me it is more fun than work. Give me pictures and the great out-doors!"
