Katherine Corri Harris

Katherine Corri Harris (October 1, 1890 – May 2, 1927) was an American socialite and golfer, who, as a result of her marriage to John Barrymore, appeared in three silent films.

The daughter of Sidney and Katharine Maude (nėe Brady) Harris, she grew up in wealth and privilege and was a product of High Society. She was the first wife of the actor John Barrymore, who was her first husband. They were married from 1910 to 1917. After their divorce, she remarried, in 1923, to Alfred D. B. Pratt, a broker; the date on which that union ended is unclear. She married, thirdly, in 1925, to Leon Orlowski (secretary of the Polish Legation); the year that union ended is unknown.

As Katherine Harris Barrymore, she appeared in two of Barrymore's now lost silent films: Nearly a King (1916) and The Lost Bridegroom (1916). In 1918, she starred as Lily Bart in the silent film version of Edith Wharton's 1905 novel, The House of Mirth, directed by Albert Capellani.

When she died from pneumonia in 1927 in New York City, aged 36, John Barrymore was at her bedside. She was interred in Green-Wood Cemetery, Brooklyn, New York.
