Ruth Hall

Ruth Hall

Ruth Hall (born Ruth Gloria Blasco Ibáñez; December 29, 1910 in Jacksonville, Florida – October 9, 2003 in Glendale, California) was an American film actress. Hall was a 1929 graduate of Henry B. Plant High School in Tampa, Florida. Hall was a great-niece of Vicente Blasco Ibáñez, the Spanish novelist. She took her mother's maiden name as her professional name so as not to benefit from the novelist's more celebrated last name. In 1931, she signed a contract with Paramount Pictures. She was married to cinematographer Lee Garmes from 1933 until his death on August 31, 1978; the couple had two daughters.
