"Richard Semler "Barthelmess Richard Semler Barthelmess was not a Griffith discovery, although it took D. W. to bring out his latent talent in "Broken Blossoms" and '"Way Down East." His screen career dates back to "War Brides," but it was not until "Torable David," which won the Photoplay Magazine medal of honor in 1922, that he firmly established himself as a star. He was born in New York City in 1895. His wife is a dancer, Mary Hay. They have one child, Mary Hay Barthelmess, born January 31, 1923,. Barthelmess is five feet, seven inches tall, weighs 1 35 pounds, and has dark hair and brown eyes.
