Mary was portrayed by actress Natalie Kingston, a beautiful brunette and trained dancer from an old California family. She earned the distinction being the first woman to play two different female leads in the Tarzan series when she was cast as Jane in the 1929 sequel, “Tarzan the Tiger.” Born Natalie Ringstrom in Vallejo, California, on May 19, 1905, she was educated at the San Rafael Convent, and trained in music and dance from an early age. After running away from school, she resumed her education in San Francisco, where she was dancing in a revue when she was hired by the brother-sister dance team Fanchon and Marco to tour the West Coast. She then appeared at the Winter Garden in Broadway; after returning to Los Angeles, she was dancing onstage with Fanchon and Marco when Mack Sennett’s director Richard Jones began casting her as a bathing beauty in comic shorts in 1923. After a few months, she moved to Paramount to appear in feature films. In 1927, she was named a Baby Wampas Star, an honor reserved for up-and-coming Hollywood starlets. ~ Scott Tracy Griffin
