Little Known Spaghetti Western Actors ~ Mary Basler

[These daily posts will cover little known actors or people that have appeared in more recent films and TV series. Various degrees of information that I was able to find will be given and anything that you can add would be appreciated.]

Mary Basler was born Maria Lieser and was a German screenwriter for early silent films. She was married to a chemist named Doctor Karl August Basler who under the alias Adolf Basler, produced and helped write films for their son producer, director, screenwriter, cameraman, film actor Hermann Basler [1896-1982].

Mary appeared in only one film and that was alongside her son Hermann in the 1920 “Bull Arizona - Der Wüstenadler” (Bull Arizona – The Desert Eagle) directed by Phil Jutzi. Bull Arizona was a six-act play released in two films and Mary appeared in the “Bull Arizona - Desert Eagle” playing the role of Mrs. Ferry.

I can find no other biographical information about her.
