Selena Royle (November 6, 1904 – April 23, 1983) was an American actress of stage, radio, television and film and later, an author.

The youngster finally turned up - she had gone on stage dressed in her mother's second-act costume; she made a bow, much to the audience's amusement.

[2] Eventually, she landed a part on her own in the 1923 Theatre Guild production of Peer Gynt, with Joseph Schildkraut, and became a respected Broadway actress.

She also played Martha Jackson in Woman of Courage, Mrs. Allen in Against the Storm, Joan in The O'Neills, and Mrs. Gardner in Betty and Bob,[4] and appeared in Kate Hopkins, Angel of Mercy.

She sued the American Legion, which had published Red Channels, in which her name was listed, and won but her acting career ended, her last film being Murder Is My Beat (1955).
