Virginia Grey (March 22, 1917 - July 31, 2004) was an American actress.
She was born in Los Angeles, California, the daughter of director Ray Grey. One of her early babysitters was Gloria Swanson. Virginia debuted at the age of ten in the silent film Uncle Tom's Cabin (1927) as Little Eva. She continued acting for a few more years, but then left movies in order to finish her education.
Grey returned to films in the 1930s with bit parts and extra work, but she eventually signed a contract with MGM and appeared in such movies as Another Thin Man, Hullabaloo and The Big Store. She left MGM in 1942, and signed with several different studios over the years, working steadily.
Grey was a regular on television in the 1950s and 1960s, appearing on Playhouse 90, Your Show of Shows, Wagon Train, Bonanza, Marcus Welby, M.D., Love, American Style, Burke's Law, The Virginian, Peter Gunn and many others.
Grey had relationships with John Basilone, Robert Taylor and Clark Gable, whom she dated in the 1940s.
