Marceline Day

**Marceline Day (1908-2000)** was an American actress renowned for her career in silent film. She began with roles in comedies, often playing the innocent, sweet, and sometimes vulnerable young woman, a typical "ingenue" of the era.

Among her most notable works is *The Cameraman* (1928), a silent comedy classic where she starred alongside Buster Keaton, displaying natural grace and excellent chemistry with the actor. She also distinguished herself in dramatic and horror roles, such as in *London After Midnight* (1927) with Lon Chaney, where she demonstrated versatility. Although she made the transition to sound film, her career slowed down in the early 1930s, leading her to retire relatively early from the screen. She remains an iconic face of Hollywood's Golden Age.
