Teala Loring (born Marcia Eloise Griffin; October 6, 1922 – January 28, 2007)[1] was an American actress who appeared in over 30 films during the 1940s.

Beginning in 1942, Loring appeared in uncredited or bit parts in films at Paramount, turning up as a cigarette girl in Holiday Inn and as a telephone operator in Double Indemnity, for example.

Having failed to achieve the success that sister Paget would capture in the 1950s, Loring made her final film, Arizona Cowboy (supporting Western star Rex Allen in his screen debut), in 1950.

[citation needed] Loring died at the age of 84 in January 2007 from injuries she sustained in an automobile accident in Spring, Texas.

[3][4] Loring and her husband, a staff sergeant in the U.S. Army during World War II, are interred at Houston National Cemetery.
