"While Nell Shipman is working on a picture, there is never anything outside of the life of the picture that intrudes itself or is permitted to invade her thoughts, and during her rest period between pictures she devotes herself entirely to exercise, animal life and its study, reading and her writings. She has a novel little retreat up on a knowl back of her home, 'Holly Hill,' Los Angeles, overhung with wild walnut trees, and with a background of foothills studded with wild flowers and shrubbery the year round where she does most of her writing [...]."
