About Jack Pickford

  • Jack Pickford (born John Charles Smith; August 18, 1896 – January 3, 1933) was a Canadian-born American actor, film director and producer.
  • He was the younger brother of actresses Mary and Lottie Pickford. After their father deserted the family, all three Pickford children began working as child actors on the stage.
  • Mary later became a highly popular silent film actress, producer and early Hollywood pioneer.
  • While Jack also appeared in numerous films as the "All American boy next door" and was a fairly popular performer, his importance was overshadowed by his sister's success.
  • Also, by the late 1920s, his career had begun to decline due to his frequent use of alcohol and chronic depression.
