Comments: Thomas Meighan (April 9, 1879 - July 8, 1936) was an American actor of silent films and early talkies. He played several leading man roles opposite popular actresses of the day including Mary Pickford and Gloria Swanson. At one point he commanded $10,000 a week. In 1919 Meighan hit stardom. One of his best known films at the time was the 1919 The Miracle Man which featured Lon Chaney Sr. This film is now believed to be lost except for brief clips. This was followed with Cecil B. DeMille's Male and Female which starred him opposite Gloria Swanson and Lila Lee. Most of the cast returned for the 1920 film, Why Change Your Wife? which also co-starred Bebe Daniels. In April 1925, Meighan and Swanson produced a short film, directed by Allan Dwan for the annual "Spring Gambol" for The Lambs. This film, sometimes known as Gloria Swanson Dialogue made in Lee DeForest's sound-on-film Phonofilm process, was made as a joke for the live event, showing Swanson trying to crash the all-male club. His popularity continued through the Roaring Twenties with him starring in several pictures. In 1924 he played in The Alaskan opposite Estelle Taylor and Anna May Wong. In 1927, Meighan starred in The City Gone Wild opposite Louise Brooks.
