From Wikipedia
Ann Christy (May 31, 1905 – November 14, 1987) was an
American motion picture actress.
Born Gladys Cronin in Logansport, Indiana, Christy left
Indiana and relocated to California where she attended Polytechnic High School
in Los Angeles. She intended to pursue a career in business, but was persuaded
by friends to try acting. She made her film debut in a bit part in the 1927
film Long Pants, starring Harry Langdon. That same year, she awarded an Al
Christie comedy leading lady film contract in May 1927. She appeared in film
comedies with Bobby Vernon and Neal Burns. In 1928, Christy was selected by
Harold Lloyd from more than fifty applicants to play his leading lady in the
comedy Speedy (1928). That same year, she was selected one of thirteen WAMPAS
Baby Stars.
Following her success in Speedy, Christy vacationed in New
York. When she returned to Hollywood, she discovered that she had been
forgotten. She returned to acting with parts in collegian film serials with
Universal Pictures.
She made her last onscreen appearance in the 1932 film
Behind Stone Walls, starring Edward J. Nugent.
