Biography
Edna Frances Tichenor (April 1, 1901 – November 19, 1965) was an American film actress whose career was most prominent in the silent film era of the 1920s, affecting an onscreen vamp persona. She is perhaps best recalled for three roles in director Tod Browning's films: the 1923 drama Drifting, the silent horror film London After Midnight, and the drama The Show, both released in 1927.
