Production
In the pre-release version of the film, Marjorie Daw played Cooper's character, Maud Barhyte. Apparently, a decision was made to emphasis Maud in the film over the Ruth Clifford character Sally Malakoff, which resulted in the change in cast for the released version of the film.[http://www.silentera.com/PSFL/data/D/DaughtersOfTheRich1923.html Progressive Silent Film List: 'Daughters of the Rich'] at silentera.com[https://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/493078/daughters-of-the-rich#notes TCM Notes on the film]
