Ann Brody

Ann Brody Goldstein The Tennessean said in 1926 that Brody was most interested in "comedy with a tear" roles and that the film Too Much Money gives her "a splendid opportunity to prove that she is best-fitted for the roles that combine comedy with pathos". The San Francisco Examiner wrote in 1929 that Brody has one of her best roles in the film My Man. During the mid-1930s, Brody moved back to New York to perform in Broadway plays. Brody was known for her film roles as Jewish mothers.

The Pasadena Post said in 1929 that Brody is "a specialist in character roles for films". The Los Angeles Evening Post-Record in 1933 said, "Ann Brody, whose Jewish maternal characterizations are stage and screen classics, is returning to the footlights once more".

Personal life Brody was born in Poland on August 29, 1884. She died in a New York City hotel room on July 16, 1944, from what appeared to be natural causes.
