Helen Ware (née Remer; October 15, 1877 – January 25, 1939) was an American stage and film actress.
Early years
Born to the architect John August Remer and Elinor Maria (née Ware), Ware adopted her mother's maiden name as her professional name. She had four siblings, Edith, Ada, Richard, and John Remer. Before becoming an actress, she worked as a governess and a swimming instructor.
Career
Ware debuted on stage in 1899 when she was a student at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Along with other students, she was an extra in a production of The Little Minister.
She had a successful Broadway stage career making her first appearance in 1899 with Maude Adams, and by her 30s, she was playing the character parts for which she became famous. She began playing character parts in silent films in 1914 and continued into the sound era. Like Louise Closser Hale, Ware was a raven-haired woman for most of her stage career, but adopted an all-blond coif toward the late 1920s at the end of the silent era and into sound movies.
Personal life
She married actor Frederick Burt (1876-1943) in 1919.
On January 25, 1939, Helen Ware died of a throat infection in Carmel, California, aged 61.
