Edna Kirby just might have been Kim Kardashian before Kim Kardashian was Kim Kardashian. Kirby was a movie actress in the 1920s but became more famous for letting people just watch her live her life. 

Was she the world’s first reality star? 

Maybe, but whatever you call her, we know for sure that 95 years ago this month, she was delighting the gawkers right here in Fargo-Moorhead.
