Living Large: Wilna Hervey and Nan Mason

Joseph P Eckhardt

Living Large: Wilna Hervey and Nan Mason is a rollicking dual biography of one America’s earliest out and proud same-sex couples. Wilna Hervey a six-foot-three-inch, three-hundred-pound heiress won the role of The Powerful Katrinka in the Toonerville Trolley comedies of the early nineteen-twenties through her impressive size. Her evocation of Katrinka was so successful that it became a permanent part of her identity. Wilna’s movie work brought her something else that would long endure a partner for life. While filming on location in the Philadelphia suburbs, Wilna Hervey met Nan Mason, the surprisingly tall daughter of her Toonerville co-star, Dan Mason. Wilna and Nan became close friends and ultimately life partners.
