Miss Nobody is a 1926 American silent drama film produced and distributed by First National Pictures and directed by Lambert Hillyer. The film is based on a short story by Tiffany Wells titled "Shebo"; the likely feminine pronunciation of hobo. The stars of the film were Anna Q. Nilsson and Walter Pidgeon, then in an early role in his career. [1] The plot of this film bears a striking resemblance to Beggars of Life , made two years later at Paramount.
