Violet Dickens

Violet Dickens (b. **/**/**** - d. **/**/****) was an actress

In 1916, a Violet Dickens appeared in three shorts and one feature film for African Film Productions: The Silver Wolf (Lorimer Johnston), A Kract Affair (B.F. Clinton), £20,000 (B.F. Clinton) and De Voortrekkers (Harold M. Shaw). There is has been some speculation about whom she might have been, but the only clue is that, when referring to A Kract Affair, the Rand Daily Mail of 26 June 1916 said that she was “a Germiston lady”.
