The Yankee Girl

The Yankee Girl is a 1915 silent film comedy produced by Oliver Morosco, distributed by Paramount Pictures and starring Blanche Ring, from the Broadway stage. This film though a comedy is actually based on Ring's 1910 musical-comedy play of the same name. Being a silent film, Ring's singing could not be heard by the film audiences, but they would get the rare chance of seeing this Broadway star in a film, as many could not afford to make the journey to New York to see her in person in the play.

This film was shot in Pasadena, California.

It is preserved in the Library of Congress and at UCLA Film & Television Archive.
