1859 Cora Ermine Players Potter Urquhart 1936


EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. James Brown-Potter, née Cora Urquhart (1859-1936), was an American actress of great renown during the early 20th century. This portrait, taken in 1903, captures her in the prime of her career. Born Cora Urquhart in New York City, she made her stage debut in 1880 at the age of 21. She quickly gained recognition for her versatility and talent, performing in a range of roles from tragic heroines to comedic characters. In this image, Mrs. Potter exudes an air of sophistication and elegance, donning an ermine fur collar and a regal expression. Her piercing gaze and expressive features convey a depth of emotion that belies the stillness of the photograph. The image is a testament to the power of her stage presence and the enduring allure of the theater. Mrs. Potter's impressive career spanned over five decades, during which she graced the stages of some of the most prestigious theaters in the United States and Europe. She was a member of the renowned Players' Company, which was founded by actor-manager Richard Mansfield in 1888. However, this photograph is not of the Players' Company, but rather a portrait of the actress herself. Despite her success on stage, Mrs. Potter's personal life was marked by tragedy. She was married twice, first to actor James Brown-Potter, with whom she had two children, and later to actor-manager Charles Frohman. Both of her husbands died young, leaving her a widow. Mrs. James Brown-Potter's legacy as a trailblazing actress continues to inspire and captivate audiences today. This portrait, a glimpse into the past, offers a window into the life and career of a remarkable woman who left an indelible mark on the history of American theater.
