Agnes Mapes was an American actress who appeared in vaudeville performances and silent films throughout the 1900s and 1910s. Originally a part of the Crescent Theatre Stock Company, she was highly praised for her role in the 1907 production of The Holy City. She later worked for the Kalem Company and was part of some of its productions filmed in Ireland in 1911. Her multiple roles in 1912's A Fool There Was resulted from actors having to be swapped around which led to her playing the lead position and being applauded for her "fascinating and repellant" performance.
