Though little known today, she was a major star between 1911 and 1917. Her career was at its height when she died at age 29 from injuries sustained in an automobile accident.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early life==&lt;br /&gt;
{{speculation|date=April 2017}}&lt;br /&gt;
Florence La Badie was one of the most important and popular actresses of the early motion picture era. She appeared in 30 films for Biograph starting in 1909 and 166 silent films from 1911 through 1917 for the Thanhouser studio in New Rochelle, New York.  A daredevil at heart, she was known as “Fearless Flo” for taking risks and performed many of her own stunts. She was a frequent subject for articles and letters in fan and trade magazines, and over a period of years, she was the most publicized and beloved of all Thanhouser players. [http://www.thanhouser.org/people/labadief.htm]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Florence La Badie was born Florence Russ on April 27, 1888 to Horace B. and Marie C. Russ in New York City. After the death of her father and the inability of her mother to provide care, Florence, at age three, was adopted by Joseph E. and Amanda J. La Badie of Montreal, Canada. [http://www.thanhouser.org/Research/Florence%20La%20Badie-WSS%20VIII-R2.pdf] The [[Internet Movie Database]] (IMDb) also lists her birthplace as [[New York City]],&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0478359/] IMDb International Movie Database&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; with the birth name of Florence Russ.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Florence&amp;#039;s adoptive father, Joseph E. La Badie, was a prominent attorney in Montreal, and his wife, the former Amanda Victor, is said to have been born in Europe, possibly Paris. Her adoptive uncle, Oddiehon LaBadie, maintained an estate in nearby St. Lambert. Florence was educated in New York City schools and at the Convent of Notre Dame in Montreal.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://books.google.com/books?id=68e2AgAAQBAJ&amp;amp;pg=RA2-PA1939&amp;amp;dq=Florence+La+Badie&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;ei=RG8iVYiJG4WlsAXPwoPgDQ&amp;amp;ved=0CFUQ6AEwCg#v=onepage&amp;amp;q=Florence%20La%20Badie&amp;amp;f=false] Lowe, Denise. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;An Encyclopedic Dictionary of Women in Early American Films: 1895-1930&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Routledge (2014) ISBN 9781317718963&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tragically, on October 13, 1917 at age 29, Florence succumbed to injuries suffered in an automobile accident on August 28, 1917, making her the first major “movie star” to die at the zenith of her popularity. The New York Times published an article the following day, Thursday October 18, 1917, reporting the throng of friends and fans attending her funeral. She was buried in an unmarked grave in the Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn, New York.[http://www.thanhouser.org/Research/Florence%20La%20Badie-WSS%20VIII-R2.pdf]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While having been raised in Montreal, in a sworn deposition on October 8, 1917, a New York woman named Marie C. Russ claimed to be Florence&amp;#039;s biological mother and referred to a Russ family burial plot in [[Brooklyn, New York|Brooklyn]]&amp;#039;s Green-Wood Cemetery, with lot number 17187 being reserved for Florence Russ, aka Florence La Badie. This legal deposition was dated five days before Florence&amp;#039;s death. There evidence to support that she was the granddaughter of a Louisa Russ, who had purchased the family plot in Green-Wood.[http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&amp;amp;GRid=7688868]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Career success==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:FlorenceLaBadie2.jpg|thumb|left]]&lt;br /&gt;
Having completed her studies, she was offered work as a fashion model in New York City. Once there, in early 1908 she obtained a small part in a stage play. Following this, she signed to tour with one of the road companies and for the next two years appeared on stage in various places in the eastern part of the United States.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=https://11east14thstreet.com/2013/08/02/florence-la-badie-becoming/|title=FLORENCE LA BADIE, BECOMING|last=Zonarich|first=Gene|date=2013-08-03|website=11 East 14th Street|access-date=2017-04-08}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; During this period she met a fellow Canadian, the young actress [[Mary Pickford]], who suggested she &amp;quot;try pictures&amp;quot;;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite journal|last=Condon|first=Mabel|date=April 1914|title=Sans Grease Paint and Wig|url=https://archive.org/stream/motography11elec/motography11elec_djvu.txt|journal=Motography|volume=|pages=}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and in [[1909 in film|1909]] she invited Florence to watch the making of a motion picture at the [[Biograph Studios|Biograph]] studio in [[Manhattan]]. Given an impromptu bit part, Florence was invited back to Biograph&amp;#039;s studios to participate in another film later that year.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.thanhouser.org/tcocd/Biography_Files/indfdkind.htm|title=LA BADIE, Florence|website=www.thanhouser.org|access-date=2017-04-08}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; She would go on to make several films under the renowned [[D. W. Griffith]], with her first credited film being in the 1909 film &amp;#039;&amp;#039;The Politician&amp;#039;s Love Story&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, starring [[Mack Sennett]] and [[Kathlyn Williams]]. {{Citation needed|date=October 2012}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[1911 in film|1911]], her career took a leap when she was hired by [[Edwin Thanhouser]] of the [[Thanhouser Film Corporation]] in [[New Rochelle, New York]]. With her sophistication and beauty, Florence La Badie soon became Thanhouser&amp;#039;s most prominent actress, appearing in dozens of films over the next two years. Her most remembered films of that period were &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Tempest (1911 film)|The Tempest]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (1911), &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1912 film)|Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (1912), a film adaptation of the [[Robert Louis Stevenson]] story, and the first film of Shakespeare&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Cymbeline]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (1914).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://books.google.com/books?id=ZQqXRktVfx8C&amp;amp;pg=PA155&amp;amp;dq=Florence+La+Badie&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;ei=WXMiVaPmJMvFsAXo-4KYBw&amp;amp;ved=0CFAQ6AEwCTha#v=onepage&amp;amp;q=Florence%20La%20Badie&amp;amp;f=false] Ball, Robert Hamilton. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Shakespeare on Silent Film: A Strange Eventful History&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Volume 1 of Routledge Library Editions: Film and Literature. Routledge (2013) ISBN 9781134980840 page 155&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Her most well-known work was in the [[1914 in film|1914]] - [[1915 in film|1915]] serial, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Million Dollar Mystery]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Athletic and daring, in these films she performed all her own stunts. In 1915, she was featured in the [[magazine]] &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Reel Life&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, which described her as &amp;quot;the Beautiful and talented Florence La Badie, of the Thanhouser Studios, conceded one of the foremost of American screen players&amp;quot;. Over a course of six years La Badie&amp;#039;s career had taken her to top-billing as a film actress. {{Citation needed|date=January 2010}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==World War I==&lt;br /&gt;
When [[World War I]] broke out in [[Europe]] in 1914, Canada immediately joined the war, and as a result, several of Florence La Badie’s young male friends and relatives back home in Montreal were immediately shipped overseas. She had many movie fans in Canada and according to one New York newspaper, in 1915 a young soldier fighting in the trenches at the Front in Northern [[France]] wrote to her, sending dozens of photographs that graphically depicted the horrors of the war. Deeply affected, La Badie became a vigorous advocate for peace, traveling the United States with a [[stereopticon]] slide show of the soldier’s photographs, warning about the terrible dangers of going to war. {{Citation needed|date=October 2012}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personal life==&lt;br /&gt;
For a time, she was engaged to a Cadillac salesman named Val Hush. They broke up, and she became involved with [[Daniel Carson Goodman]], a writer who worked on the scenario for Thanhouser&amp;#039;s serial &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Zudora&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. [http://www.thanhouser.org/tcocd/Biography_Files/indfdkind.htm]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Death==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Florencelabadie3.jpg|thumb]]&lt;br /&gt;
In August 1917, La Badie was at the height of her motion picture success. She had appeared in 185 films since 1909, 32 fewer than [[Mary Pickford]]&amp;#039;s 217 films during the same period. Her film &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Woman in White (1917 film)|The Woman in White]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web | url=http://www.thanhouser.org/films/woman_white.htm | title=The Woman in White (1917)}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; had just been released in July 1917. Her latest two films, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Man Without a Country (1917 film)|The Man Without a Country]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, a film adaptation of [[Edward Everett Hale]]&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Man Without a Country]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;War and the Woman&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, would also soon be released, both on September 9, 1917. Although the Thanhouser Corporation had been struggling since the 1914 automobile accident death of [[Charles J. Hite]], her career was thriving and had been their saving grace. Less than a month earlier, she had announced that she was leaving Thanhouser, and she had several other film corporations willing to pick her up on contract immediately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On August 28, 1917, while driving near [[Ossining (village), New York|Ossining, New York]] in the company of her [[fiance]], [[Daniel Carson Goodman]], the brakes on La Badie’s car failed and the vehicle plunged down a hill, overturning at the bottom. While Goodman escaped with only a broken leg, La Badie was thrown from the vehicle and suffered serious injuries, including a compound [[fracture of the pelvis]]. Hospitalized, she clung to life for more than six weeks and seemed to be improving, but suddenly died on October 13, from [[septicemia]]. She thus became the first major female film star to die while her career was at its peak, and the movie-going public mourned her death. After a large funeral, she was interred in an unmarked grave in the [[Green-Wood Cemetery]] in [[Brooklyn, New York]],&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://books.google.com/books?id=LWA0SIs6ESoC&amp;amp;pg=PA141&amp;amp;dq=Florence+La+Badie&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;ei=-A0iVaSuFcnmsAXV-IDwAg&amp;amp;ved=0CCkQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&amp;amp;q=Florence%20La%20Badie&amp;amp;f=false] Foster, Charles. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Stardust and Shadows: Canadians in Early Hollywood&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Dundurn (2000) ISBN 9781770700987 page 148&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; the same cemetery included by Marie C. Russ in her legal proceedings days before her death, with Marie Russ claiming to have been her actual birth mother in sworn deposition. Obituary notices stated La Badie was survived by her mother, Amanda La Badie, with no mention of her having been adopted. This omission would have been customary at the time. Due to her death, it is unknown what her prolonged impact in films would have been. Although little-remembered now, she was once a top-billed star. Under New York laws, the property of her estate was divided between Mr. and Mrs. Joseph La Badie.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2014, Ned Thanhouser, the grandson of Edwin Thanhouser, raised money for a proper headstone for La Badie, which was installed on April 27 of that year, on what would have been her 126th birthday.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |last=Perlman |first=Matthew |date=30 April 2014 |title=A head-start for late silent-film star |url=http://www.brooklyndaily.com/stories/2014/18/all-fearless-flo-green-wood-2014-05-02-bk_2014_18.html |newspaper=Brooklyn Daily |location=Brooklyn |publisher=Courier Life |accessdate=30 April 2014}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
