Gloria Talbott (February 7, 1931 – September 19, 2000) was an American film and television actress.
She grew up in Glendale, California, a city co-founded by one of her grandfathers. Her sister, Lori Talbott, also became an actress. Gloria began her career as a child actress in such films as Maytime (1937) , Sweet and Low-down (1944) and A Tree Grows In Brooklyn (1945).
After leaving school, Talbott formed a dramatic group and played "arena"-style shows at various clubs. She stopped acting following her first marriage, and resumed after her divorce, working extensively in film and television.
Talbott worked in film on a regular basis during the 1950s. She appeared in Crashout (1955), the Humphrey Bogart comedy We're No Angels (1955), Lucy Gallant (1955), and All That Heaven Allows (1955).
She later became known as a 'scream queen' after appearing in a number of horror films including The Daughter of Dr. Jekyll (1957), The Cyclops (1957), I Married a Monster from Outer Space (1958) and The Leech Woman (1960).
Her final film role was as Bri Quince, the love interest in the 1966 Western film An Eye for an Eye.
In 1955, Talbott appeared in TV Reader's Digest episode America's First Great Lady as Pocahontas.
