Inez Plummer

Inez Plummer was a Syracuse, New York native[1] and a leading lady of the Burbank, California stock company, in the second decade of the 20th century.[2] Plummer's father managed a theater for thirty-five years. He disapproved of his daughter becoming an actress. Plummer rehearsed her first role in her father's theater with a stock company, without his knowledge. After finding out he was shocked but decided to let her continue.[1]
