Edna Purviance, Charlie Chaplin's Leading Lady - Welcome to Paradise
 |
Edna Purviance's site explores the birthhome and life of Edna Purviance, Charles Chaplin's most enduring and endearing leading lady.
Born October 21st, 1895, Edna Purviance lived a few years in ParadiseValley before moving to Lovelock, Nevada. You will learn more about Edna and her family life in Nevada and beyond.
In September 2006, our company Leading Ladies (Hill Family and Linda Wada) presented in Hollywood the first documentary on Edna Purviance.
And we are excited to announce the release of our first book to feature Edna Purviance, The Sea Gull "A Woman of the Sea." It is available at our sister site ednapurviance.com.
Edna Purviance's site will continue to grow. With Chaplin devotee Dominique Dugros, we have the Chaplin Library with nearly 600 books and a new database version coming. Thank you for visiting! We hope you enjoy your visit! - Linda Wada & Dominique Dugros
