HOOVER PHOTO HAURA OAKLEY. Born in Oakland, Cal., Miss Oakley's theatrical career dates from the age of twelve, when she appeared at the Tivoli Opera House in San Francisco, in a musical comedy, remaining there for a period of four years, when she accepted an engagement with the Bostonians lasting six years. Her next engagement was with the Kolb and Dill Company in musical comedy, remaining with them four years. Miss Oakley's first, appearance in moving pictures was with the Imp Company, in character parts, under the direction of Fred Mace; from there to the Keystone Company, and for the past two years with the Universal Film Company, Los Angeles, playing character parts. Miss Oakley is possessed of a beautiful contralto voice of great range, and she has the unique distinction of being the only "'Lady Chief of Police" in the world, being elected in 1913 as "Chief" of "Universal City," her official title being recognized and supported by the police department of Los Angeles.
