HOLLYWOOD TIDBITS: GLORIA LLOYD

Sadly I missed this death from February of 2012...

Gloria Lloyd, daughter of Harold Lloyd, dies
by Shalini Dore

Gloria Lloyd, daughter of silent film star Harold Lloyd, died Feb. 10 in Santa Monica. She was 87.

An actress and a model, she appeared in 1946's "Temptation" with Merle Oberon, and as herself in "American Masters"' "Harold Lloyd: The Third Genius," and "This Is Your Life: Harold Lloyd."

Cari Beauchamp, who interviewed her for a book on Greenacres, Harold Lloyd's estate, said, "At her wedding in Greenacres, Hedda Hopper and Louella Parsons both came. And for that one day they called a truce."

Survivors include a daughter, Susan, chairman of Harold Lloyd Entertainment.

Services will be private, although a public memorial is being planned, Beauchamp said...

  1. Thank you for sharing this; I had not heard of Gloria Lloyd's death. I can recall the summer TCM honored Harold Lloyd (as Star of the Month?), and Susan's appearances on the network introducing her grandfather's films.
