Lee Patrick (November 22, 1901 – November 21, 1982) was an American actress whose career began in 1922 on the New York stage with her role in The Bunch and Judy which headlined Adele Astaire and featured Adele's brother Fred Astaire.^[2] Patrick continued to perform in dozens of roles on the stage for the next decade, frequently in musicals and comedies, but also in dramatic parts like her 1931 performance as Meg in Little Women. She began to branch out into films in 1929. For half a century she created a credible body of cinematic work, her most memorable being in 1941 as Sam Spade's assistant Effie in The Maltese Falcon, and her reprise of the role in the George Segal 1975 comedy sequel The Black Bird. Her talents were showcased in comedies such as the 1942 Jack Benny film George Washington Slept Here and in 1958 as one of the foils of Rosalind Russell in Auntie Mame. Dramatic parts such as an asylum inmate in the 1948 The Snake Pit and as Pamela Tiffin's mother in the 1961 Summer and Smoke were another facet of her repertoire. She made numerous guest roles in American television, but became a staple for that medium during the two-year run of Topper. As Henrietta Topper, her comedic timing played well against Leo G. Carroll as her husband, and against that of the two ghosts played by Robert Sterling and Anne Jeffreys. Patrick lent her voice to various animated characters of The Alvin Show in the early 1960s.

Personal life

Not much is known about Patrick's early life. She was born on November 22, 1901, in New York City. By 1937, Patrick married newsman-writer Tom Wood of "The Lighter Side of Billy Wilder", and remained married 45 years, until Patrick's death. They had no children. During her career in Hollywood, she was not in good standing with gossip columnist queen of the day, Louella Parsons and it kept her career stuck in the "B" ranks. Lee's husband, magazine writer Tom Wood, wrote a frank piece on Parsons which did not go over well with the powerhouse columnist.

Acting career

Stage

Her debut on the Broadway theatre stage began in November 1922 as part of the supporting ensemble cast for Adele and Fred Astaire in the Jerome Kern and Anne Caldwell musical The Bunch and Judy, which ran for eight weeks.^[3] It was not until September 1924 that Patrick was once again on the Broadway stage, in an 8-week run of The Green Beetle at the Klaw Theatre. The John Willard drama set in San Francisco's Chinatown featured her as the lead characters' daughter who escaped a murder attempt.^[4]

Although playwright William H. McMaster's The Undercurrent closed the same month it opened in 1925 after 23 performances,^[5] that was only the first of 5 plays in which Patrick honed her talent that year. The Backslapper (1925) was a political drama that ran for 33 performances with Patrick in a supporting role as Mrs. Kennedy.^[6] A trend was developing as Patrick began to flex her comedic muscles for the remainder of 1925: Bachelors' Brides was a farce in which she played a guardian angel;^[7]It All Depends was another comedy,^[8] The farce A Kiss in a Taxi that ran for 103 performances and featured another up and coming talent, Claudette Colbert, rounded up Patrick's stage work of 1925.^[9]

The Shelf comedy in 1926 was brief at 32 performances, but otherwise notable for being the debut stage performance of Thelma Ritter who, like Patrick, would go on to become a comedy sidekick in films.^[10] Patrick only acted in three plays in 1927: the very brief 12-performance comedy Baby Mine which brought her together with Humphrey Bogart for the first time;^[11] the equally brief The Matrimonial Bed;^[12] and Nightstick,^[13] an 84-performance run through January 1928 that also featured Thomas Mitchell who would go on to win an Academy Award for his performance in Gone with the Wind. The 24-performance run of The Common Sin was the only other play she did in 1928.^[14]

The Ring Lardner and George S. Kaufman June Moon gave Patrick her longest run of her stage career, 273 performances in 1929 and 1930,^[15] and an additional 48 performances in 1933.^[16] She rounded out 1930 with the 13-performance run of Room of Dreams.^[17]Privilege Car was her first play of 1931,^[18] but she soon was on stage with George M. Cohan in the musical Friendship^[19] and finished out that year with 17 performances as Meg in Little Women^[20] One of the briefest plays of her career was The Girl Outside in 1932, which only ran for 8 performances;^[21] however, that one came on the heels of the very successful Blessed Event that had run for 115 performances.^[22]

After the very brief run of Shooting Star in 1933,^[23] and the equally brief Slightly Delirious, her only play of 1934,^[24] Patrick began to look towards a film career. Knock on Wood^[25] and Abide With Me^[26] did not fare much better for her. She had a long run of 169 performances in Stage Door in 1936–1937,^[27] but only did one more Broadway play after that, the unsuccessful comedy Michael Drops In.^[28]

Feature films

Cast of Inner Sanctum L-R Nana Bryant, Billy House, Lee Patrick and Dale Belding

Patrick had the starring role in her first film, Strange Cargo, an early American sound production for Pathé released on March 31, 1929. In this remake of producer Benjamin Glazer's Missing Man,^[29] British actor George Barraud played her leading man.^[30] It was another six years before she made another film, The Casino Murder Case for MGM. She had a bit part as a nurse in the film, which brought her together for the first time with Leo G. Carroll, with whom two decades later she would work on the television series Topper.^[31]

She remained in Hollywood and appeared in Border Cafe (1937). Over the next several years she played numerous supporting roles, without attracting much critical attention. Patrick appeared in The Maltese Falcon (1941) as Effie Perine, the loyal and quick-thinking secretary of Humphrey Bogart's Sam Spade.^[32] Perine was one of Patrick's most enduring film characterizations. That same year, she appeared in a leading role as an intelligent, crime-solving nurse in The Nurse's Secret.^[33]
Among her other films are The Sisters (1938), Now, Voyager (1942), Mrs. Parkington (1944), Gambler's Choice (1944), Mildred Pierce (1945), Wake Up and Dream (1946), Caged (1950), There's No Business Like Show Business (1954), Vertigo (1958), Auntie Mame (1958), Pillow Talk (1959), Summer and Smoke (1961), and 7 Faces of Dr. Lao (1964).^[32]

In the mid-1960s Lee retired to travel and paint in Orange County, CA, but was coaxed back one more time to Hollywood. Her final film role was a reprise of her 'Effie Perine' character in a Maltese Falcon spoof of the Sam Spade story The Black Bird, starring George Segal as Sam Spade, Jr., who in the storyline, was forced to continue his father's work and to keep his increasingly sarcastic secretary, the film attempted to turn its revered predecessor into a comedy.^[32] The only one joining her from the original cast was Elisha Cook Jr. The film premiered May 9, 1976.

Television

Cast of Topper Standing-Anne Jeffreys, Robert Sterling. Seated-Leo G. Carroll, Buck (the dog who played Neil), Lee Patrick

Patrick appeared on television in the CBS situation comedy Topper (1953–1955) with Leo G. Carroll, Anne Jeffreys, and Robert Sterling.^[34]

She made several appearances as the mother of Ida Lupino in the CBS sitcom Mr. Adams and Eve (1957–1958), also starring Howard Duff. In 1963, she appeared as Aunt Wilma Howard in the episode "Skeleton in the Closet" of Walter Brennan's CBS sitcom The Real McCoys.^[35]

In 1965, she appeared as Mrs. Ashton Durham in the episode "It's a Dog's World" of Hazel and as Cora Prichard in an episode entitled "Noblesse Oblige" during the show's final season. She also turned in a voice performance as "Mrs. Frumpington" in an episode of the CBS animated series The Alvin Show, which may also be heard on the soundtrack LP by David Seville and The Chipmunks. Patrick made three appearances on I Married Joan.^[36][37]

Death

Lee was plagued by health problems in later years, and died suddenly on November 21, 1982, from a heart seizure at Laguna Beach, California, a day before her 81st birthday. Her husband of 45 years, writer Thomas Wood, survived her.^[38]
