Lulu Glaser (June 2, 1874 - September 5, 1958) was a popular American actress and vocalist. She appeared on Broadway and later Vaudeville. She was married to actor Ralph C. Herz(died 1921) and Thomas D. Richards(divorced).
Glaser's first appearance on the stage was at the Broadway Theatre in New York on December 30 1891 in the play The Lion Tamer. She appeared in two more plays and on October 3 1893 appeared as Javotte in a revival of Erminie starring Francis Wilson.[1]
Glaser appeared in only two motion pictures, both silent films. Love's Pilgrimage to America(1916) and How Molly Made Good(1915). The latter a still surviving film and on DVD.
Lulu is often erroneously quoted by writers and websites as to having been one of the many wives of De Wolf Hopper. Not true. Hopper's fifth and last wife was named 'Lillian Glaser' and is not related to Lulu.[2] They were two different people. Lulu, a singer like De Wolf, may have appeared with him on the stage at some point in their long careers.
