Fellowship Project Update: Corinne Griffith Profile in Texas Monthly

As part of the WFPP’s Frederica Sagor Maas Fellowship, current fellow Drew Björkstén published a profile on Texarkana-born pioneer Corinne Griffith in Texas Monthly. The article was published on the website under the headline, “Corinne Griffith Was a Silent-Film Superstar. Then the World Heard Her Voice.” The piece went live on November 21, 2024 — which would have been Corinne Griffith’s 130th birthday.
