Carlotta Nillson
Carlotta Nillson (February 25, 1876 – December 30, 1951) was a Swedish-born American actress who appeared in at least ten Broadway productions over the first decade of the twentieth century. She was probably best remembered for her portrayal of Rhys Macchesney in the play, ''The Three of Us.''
==Early life==
Carlotta Nillson was born on February 25, 1876 in 〔(Carlota Nillson, Find a Grave Memorial )〕〔Carlotta Nillson, Passenger Manifest SS April 11, 1927, Ancestry.com scan〕 Småland, Sweden 〔(National Magazine, 1907, pg. 326 (Free Google Books) )〕 and was raised by her widowed mother. When she was about ten her mother brought her to America where they first settled in Wisconsin and later Minnesota. Nillson's mother was very poor at the time and it was soon decided that she should live with a more affluent neighbor with a large family. Though too young to be a nanny, Nillson was expected to entertain the younger children of the household. Because of her circumstances Nillson was not a happy child (later describing herself as being "born old”) and at first found this chore somewhat challenging. This she overcame when it was discovered she had a knack for conjuring up fairy tales rich with goblins, sea pirates and fairies who lived in ice caves along the North Sea.〔(Theatre Magazine; Vol. 7; pg. 237 )〕
Several years later Nillson and her mother moved to San Francisco where the young teenager managed to be hired as a walk-on player with Madame Modjeska’s stock company. Nillson's stage debut followed in a road production of Friedrich Schiller’s play, '' Mary Stuart''. Modjeska had noticed how emotional Nillson became during Mary’s (Modjeska) execution scene and cast her as one of the maids that accompanied the Scottish Queen to the scaffold.〔(Theatre Magazine; Vol. 7; pg. 237 )〕
