The scenario was based on the 1923 novel, Her Reputation by Talbot Mundy and Bradley King.
       According to the 6 January 1923 Camera, principal photography had been completed at the Ince Studio in Culver City, CA, under the working title, News. The original story, Her Reputation was attributed only to Bradley King. Henry Sharp was credited as cameraman, Frank Geraghty as assistant director, Horace Williams as casting director, and Clark W. Thomas as general manager. The 27 January 1923 Exhibitors Trade Review included Cullen Landis in the cast.
       Items in the 1 February 1923 Film Daily and 3 February 1923 Moving Picture World announced that Thomas H. Ince had recently added British author Talbot Mundy to his writing department. Mundy’s first contribution was a novel titled The Devil's Own. One month later, the 3 March 1923 Camera reported that Bradley King was collaborating with Mundy on the novel, which would be published later that year by Bobbs-Merrill Co. of Indianapolis, IN. That same day, Motion Picture News claimed that Ince had acquired screen rights to the story, even though both writers were under his employ. The start of production under the title, Her Reputation, was noted in the 24 March 1923 issue.
       Although the 21 April 1923 Moving Picture World stated that filming was nearly completed, articles in the 18 August 1923 and 15 September 1923 editions of Camera suggested that shooting may have continued through the next two months. The articles revealed that flood scenes had been made on location in Yuma, AZ, with both male and female stunt doubles substituting for May McAvoy. In one sequence, the actress’s character was to drive a buggy drawn by two horses “across a narrow neck of land through surging waters,” which were controlled by a flood gate on the Yuma River. As approximately two feet of water rushed over the strip of land, the female double attempted the stunt but soon became dizzy and fainted. The male double retained consciousness but was unable to control the nervous horses. McAvoy then volunteered and “nonchalantly” drove the buggy without incident. The actress was also said to have brought an adding machine on set to tally the number of miles she had danced during the production. While the exact number was not divulged, it was considered worthy of a trophy. The completion of editing and titling were reported in the 4 August 1923 Camera.
       As stated in the 15 September 1923 Motion Picture News, the novel was published as Her Reputation, initially available in a “photoplay” edition to coincide with the film’s release that same month. A Los Angeles, CA, opening followed at the Metropolitan Theatre during the week of 14 October 1923.
       Child actress Jane Miller, who played the role of “Pepita,” has been listed in various sources as either Jane Walsh or Jane Wray. The latter name was also said to be a pseudonym for Bradley King.
       According to the Library of Congress American Silent Feature Film Survival Database, portions of this film are extant.
