Description
English: Photograph of film editor Hettie Gray Baker
  • Caption:
    SHE LIVES IN THE DARK
    Hetty Gray Baker passes her life in the dark, scrutinizing and editing Fox pictures, and yet she is a merry lady with a fine sense of humor. When Fox pictures would be without her delicate touch, goshonly knows. She is the supreme authority, once the film is put into her hands, responsible only to Fox himself. How does one become a film editor? Well, you are born in Hartford, and work in a Public Library, and try Boston and don't like it, go back to Hartford and study law and don't like it, decide to write scenarios and succeed through persistence, and make the grand tour to California and meet Griffith and everything. And then Fox has a row with Herbert Brenon and needs someone with intelligence to edit "A Daughter of the Gods," and if your name is Hetty Gray Baker he sends for you to come from the Coast where you had a job in his studio, and there you are. Quite simple.
