Edward José

Belgian-born Edward José began his film career as an actor, starring opposite Theda Bara in one of her most famous films, A Fool There Was (1915). Turning to directing shortly afterwards, he handled several Pearl White serials, and piloted many features in the late 1910s and early 1920s. His most ambitious film was The Beloved Vagabond (1915), six reels long and tinted in color. He left the US in 1922 and settled in France, where he continued directing films until 1926.
