Elsie Baker (July 13, 1893 – August 16, 1971) was an American actress. Her career spanned the gamut from vaudeville through silent movies to radio to Hollywood and television. She has sometimes been confused with the American contralto Elsie West Baker (1886-1958) who was also known as Elsie Baker.
Baker was born in Chicago, Illinois, into a theatrical family, with an actress for a mother and a father who owned a Chicago stock company. She first went on stage when she was just 10 months old, and more than 70 years later Baker was still taking roles in Hollywood films until just before her death.[1]
On August 16, 1971, she died of a heart attack at her home in Hollywood. She was survived by a son and a daughter.[1]
