Leota Lorraine (1899–1974) was an American film actress.[1] A leading lady and supporting player of the silent era.

After the introduction of sound she generally played minor, often uncredited, parts. A stint as Mary Boland's stand-in led to her being cast as Boland's sister in Ruggles of Red Gap (1935).[2][3]
