Mary McAllister

Mary McAllister, also known as Little Mary McAllister, was an American silent film actress of Hollywoods early years, and a pioneer of child actors.

McAllister was born in Los Angeles, California, and started her acting career at the early age of 6, starring opposite Edna Mayo and William Burns in the 1915 film Despair. As a child actor she would star in thirty six films by the time she reached the age of 18. Her best known film during that time would be her lead role in Sadie Goes to Heaven, which also starred Russell McDermott and Jenny St. George, which was St. Georges first and only film role. In 1927 she was one of thirteen girls selected as WAMPAS Baby Stars, alongside Sally Phipps, Martha Sleeper and Frances Lee, among others.
