Faith Green

Faith Green (born Faith Emily Wheeler; June 1869 - June 8, 1933) was an American screenwriter active during Hollywood's silent era. She worked with directors like David Hartford, King Vidor, and Henry McRae.

Early life and career Born Faith Emily Wheeler in British India, Brought to the United States while still an infant by her parents, she also served as secretary of the New York Pen & Brush Club.

Mrs. Green resided in New York but also worked extensively in Canada. She was also valued due to her editing skills and knowledge of censor boards in the U.S. and Canada.

She spent time with Ralph Connor and adapted many of his novels for the big screen.

Personal life and death On June 15, 1892, Faith Wheeler became Mrs. Faith Wheeler Green, wife of architect Franklin A. Green. Within well under three years, the entire next generation of Greens had arrived, two daughters and one son.

On June 8, 1933, (having conceivably just turned 64, but undeniably destined to do so at some point that monthAlthough her obituary unambiguously and prominently displays 59 as her age at time of death, leading one to posit 1873 or '74 as the possible year of birth, this apparent concession to vanity is clearly outweighed by the relevant answers given by her parents' on the 1880 Census form (specifically, stating that Faith was then 10 years old—and thus, born in either 1869 or '70), and, better yet, by Green's own answer on the 1900 form, which allows her not only to specify both the month—June—and year—1869—of her birth, but to stipulate that, as of the date of that page's enumeration, she had not yet turned 31. Predeceased by both her husband—in 1914 —and, even before that, her daughter, Lucy, she was survived by her other two children, Mrs. Grace Farmhold and Guy Wheeler Green.
