Ann Christy (born Gladys Cronin; May 31, 1905 – November 14, 1987) was an American motion picture actress, whose screen career was relatively brief, spanning only five years, from 1927 in the late silent era to the early years of sound.
That same year, she was awarded an Al Christie comedy leading lady film contract in May 1927.
In 1928, Christy was selected by Harold Lloyd from more than fifty applicants to play his leading lady in the comedy Speedy (1928).
She said she sustained multiple fractures and other injuries when she drove her car into a ditching machine, which she contended was left on the highway by the defendants, without the proper lights.
[citation needed] She made her last onscreen appearance in the 1932 film Behind Stone Walls, starring Edward J. Nugent.
