Olive Thomas was an actress from the 1910s to the 1920s. She was the very first "flapper girl", and she led a wild life, and she was married to Jack Pickford. Olive she passed away in 1920, when she was just 25, under depressing circumstances! She accidentally poisoned herself with mercury bi-chloride while in France, after misreading a label (it was for her husband's syphilis!), and died five days later.
