Photoplay Magazine's Popular Players DAVID WARK GRIFFITH is the best-known photoplay director in the world, and by very many is considered the supreme artist among the makers of silent drama. His achievements become colossal when his career is viewed as a pioneer's. He not only has evolved the greatest screen plays of our time but made the photoplay itself (in its present development) possible. Mr. Griffith is a Kentuckian, is of Southern-Scotch ancestry, and was on the legitimate stage for some years of mild success before his real career commenced.
