Landers Stevens (February 17, 1877 – December 25, 1940) was an American stage and film actor. He began his career on the stage, becoming a leading member of the Alcazar Theatre repertory company in San Francisco. With the advent of sound films, he established himself in Hollywood as a prolific and versatile character actor, active primarily in the 1920s and 1930s. Specializing in roles as professional or authority figures, he frequently portrayed doctors, lawyers, businessmen, and police officials. His extensive filmography includes over one hundred appearances, often in minor or uncredited roles, in films such as *The Thirteenth Chair* (1929), *Wild Boys of the Road* (1933), and *The Last of the Mohicans* (1936). Although he never achieved major individual accolades, he was a constant and reliable presence in classic American cinema. He is also known as the father of the award-winning director George Stevens.
