BIOGRAPHY

Sunshine Sammy Morrison, born Ernest Fredric Morrison, was a trailblazing African American child actor whose charm lit up the silent film era. His most notable work, *Call a Taxi!* (1920), showcases his exceptional talent and has become a coveted item among collectors. This film not only highlights his early contributions to cinema but also represents a significant chapter in the history of African American representation on screen. Morrison's career took a pause after 1926 but saw a brief revival between 1940 and 1944, during which he added to his filmography with engaging performances. Collectors especially seek out his works for their historical value and rarity, as they encapsulate a unique time in film history. With a limited number of prints still in circulation, films featuring Sunshine Sammy have become prized possessions for those passionate about preserving the legacy of early cinema and the evolution of child actors in Hollywood.
