Biography
Trunnelle was born in Dwight, Illinois and died in Glendale, California.[1]
Photoplay magazine argued that she was the merry-serious girl whose expressive eyes and face mirror emotions more effectively than a hundred voices. She was educated upon the stage for the five years she had spent in films, mostly before Edison cameras. Miss Trunnelle was a modest, cheerful, winsome young American wife whose husband was Herbert Prior.[2]
She was a prominent star in early silent films of Edison Films, and frequently co-starred with Prior.[3]
