Lawrence Gray (July 27, 1898 – February 2, 1970) was an American actor of the 1920s and 1930s.

Early life and career

Born on July 27, 1898, in San Francisco, Gray attended schools there and worked in Standard Oil Company's export department. He served during World War I in the U.S. Navy and became an ensign. After the war, he was production manager at the Lasky Studios, but later became an extra in crowd scenes and such, and liking the work, decided on a film career.[1] He appeared in over 40 films between 1925 and 1936, although many were B movies.[citation needed]

In 1930, he starred in the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer film musical Children of Pleasure, alongside Wynne Gibson, and was also involved with the film score. That same year he also starred in the Vitaphone film musicals Sunny and Spring is Here.

Personal life and death

On August 7, 1935, with the Associated Press crediting actress Dolores Del Rio as matchmaker, Gray married Mexican former actress Maria Luisa Figueroa;[2][3] shortly thereafter, they relocated permanently to Mexico City. The marriage produced no children.[4]

Gray died in Mexico City on February 2, 1970, at the age of 71,[5] survived by his wife.[4]
