Name: Isobel Elsom
Date of Birth: 16 March 1893 The epitome of opulent, grande dame haughtiness, British character actress Isobel Elsom began on the stage in 1911 and went on to grace a number of silent and sound pictures in England, marrying and divorcing director 'Maurice Elvey' (qv) in the interim. In the late 30s she settled in America and earned major Broadway success with the play "Ladies in Retirement," which she also took to film in 1941. What the tiny-framed Elsom lacked in stature, she certainly made up for in pure chutzpah. The mat... ronly actress remained in Hollywood and played a number of huffy bluebloods in both comedies and drama for over two decades, often as a minor 'Margaret Dumont' (qv)-like foil to 'Jerry Lewis (I)' (qv) in his solo pictures of the late 50s and early 60s. She sometimes was billed under the last name of a second husband, appearing as Isobel Harbold.Read more Isobel Elsom movies (actor)
