Aileen Manning

Aileen Manning (January 20, 1886 – March 25, 1946) was an American film actress.

Manning was in demand as a character actress in silent films. She was known for her roles in silent and early sound films, including Uncle Tom's Cabin (1927) and Huckleberry Finn (1931).

About her performance in Everybody's Sweetheart (1920), Variety wrote that she "makes the character necessarily disagreeable, but true to life". She played Queen Anne in A Lady of Quality (1924); it was noted that she bore a resemblance to the character she was playing. She played another queen, Elizabeth I, in the MGM short The Virgin Queen (1928).

Manning lived at Hollywood-by-the-Sea. She died on March 25, 1946, in Hollywood.
