Ann Brody Goldstein[1] (August 29, 1884 – July 16, 1944), known professionally as Ann Brody, was an American film actress of the silent era. Brody was known as a pioneer film actress.
Career
Brody started acting on stage when she was nine years old in a children's theatre in New York. She later toured throughout the United States as part of stock companies. Her first film role was in a 1912 Vitagraph film, and she later became a part of the studio. People that she worked with included Norma Talmadge, Wally Van, Hughie Mack, and Flora Finch. She acted in Hollywood film productions in the 1920s.[1] The Tennessean said in 1926 that Brody was most interested in "comedy with a tear" roles and that the film Too Much Money gives her "a splendid opportunity to prove that she is best-fitted for the roles that combine comedy with pathos".[2] The San Francisco Examiner wrote in 1929 that Brody has one of her best roles in the film My Man.[3] During the mid-1930s, Brody moved back to New York to perform in Broadway plays. Brody was known for her film roles as Jewish mothers.[1] Brody's 50th year as a stage actress was celebrated in 1937. Her last stage role was in the 1940 play The Time of Your Life. She was known as a pioneer film actress.[4]
The Pasadena Post said in 1929 that Brody is "a specialist in character roles for films".[5] The Los Angeles Evening Post-Record in 1933 said, "Ann Brody, whose Jewish maternal characterizations are stage and screen classics, is returning to the footlights once more".[6]
Personal life
Brody was born in Poland on August 29, 1884.[7] She died in a New York City hotel room on July 16, 1944, from what appeared to be natural causes.[7][8]
