- Charles_Selby abstract "Charles Selby (c. 1802 - 1863) was a 19th century English actor and playwright, and translator of many French plays (often without attribution, not uncommon at the time).Among his works was The Marble Heart (1854), a translation of Théodore Barrière's Les Filles de marbre. The play is best known today for a November 9, 1863 performance in Washington, D.C., where President Abraham Lincoln watched John Wilkes Booth, playing the villain Raphael. Booth directed some of his threatening lines directly to Lincoln, causing one of Lincoln's party to remark "he looks as if he meant that for you." Lincoln agreed, noting "he does look pretty sharp at me, doesn't he?"Selby died at his home in Covent Garden, London, on March 21, 1863, and buried at Kensal Green Cemetery.".
