Miriam Cooper is a durable American actress who arrived well before the current crop and stayed. Elsewhere on the filmography sits 'Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages'. Casting directors have gone to her for drama more than for anything else. The filmography runs to some 27 credits between film and television. Margaret Cameron in 'The Birth of a Nation' is the role that outgrew the rest.

Miriam Cooper (November 7, 1891 – April 12, 1976) was a silent film actress who is best known for her work in early film including Birth of a Nation and Intolerance for D.W. Griffith and The Honor System and Evangeline for her husband Raoul Walsh. She retired from acting in 1923 but was rediscovered by the film community in the 1960s, and toured colleges lecturing about silent films.Miriam Cooper, licensed under CC-BY-SA, full list of contributors on Wikipedia.
