Bio -
Mabel Emma Johnston Graduated in 1922 from Pennsylvania Museum And School Of Industrial Art (now known as The University Of The Arts) from the department of Industrial Art.  She won 2 prize awards for costume design this same year in a competition.  After graduation, Johnston got her first Broadway job designing costumes for "Sun Showers" musical comedy in c.1923.
She continued to work continuously for Broadway throughout the 1920's for musical revues and comedies.
Most of Mabel Johnston's designs cannot be tied to a specific Broadway production.
