Agnes Brand Leahy (August 18, 1893 – March 31, 1934) was an American screenwriter active in the 1920s and early 1930s.
[1] Born Agnes Laura Brand in Portland, Oregon, and raised in Washington state, she married Fred Leahy in Seattle in 1913.
The pair seems to have relocated to Southern California soon after and secured jobs at Paramount—she as a stenographer and he as a production manager.
[citation needed] Over the course of her career, she worked with filmmakers like Dorothy Arzner, Joseph L. Mankiewicz, and Frank R. Strayer.
After a prolonged illness and leave from Paramount, Leahy died at the age of 40 at a sanitarium near San Francisco.
