Biography

Marceline Day, the younger sister of renowned actress Alice Day, rose to fame in the mid-1920s, captivating audiences alongside esteemed stars such as John Barrymore and the legendary Lon Chaney. Demonstrating a remarkable aptitude for comedy, she also shared the screen with some of the most prominent comedians of the era, including the incomparable Buster Keaton and the talented Harry Langdon.

Despite her initial success, Marceline's career began to experience a decline in the early 1930s, and she found herself relegated to starring in low-budget thrillers and action pictures. Eventually, she brought her acting career to a close in the mid-1930s, marking the end of her time in the spotlight.
