Eleanor Fried was a Russian Empire-born American film editor, business manager, and screenwriter who worked at Universal and MGM in the 1910s and 1920s.[1][2][3] Like most editors of the early silent era, she didn't receive on-screen credit for her earliest efforts.

Biography

Eleanor was born in Grodno, the Russian Empire (currently Belarus) in 1891. As a young girl, she immigrated to the New York City with her family. She began studying to become a lawyer after high school but instead found herself drawn to showbusiness.[4]

She began her career as a film editor at Universal in New York before moving to Los Angeles to cut films alongside Frank Lawrence at Universal.[5][6][7] At Universal, she worked for years as an editor and staff critic[8] before getting a chance to write her own scripts and eventually become a business manager.[9] She was signed to MGM's writing staff in 1926.[10]

She was married to writer-director Scott Darling.[11]
