Joan Morgan (1 February 1905 – 22 July 2004) was an English film actress, screenwriter and novelist.[1][2]
Born in Forest Hill, London, she was the daughter of film director Sidney Morgan and his wife, Evelyn.[3] Joan Morgan died at age 99 in Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, UK in 2004.[3]
She became a leading British star of the 1920s, after appearing in a number of films directed by her father. Her acting career was effectively ended by the arrival of sound film in 1929 and she switched to writing, working on a number of screenplays over the following decade. She also wrote for television.
She wrote novels under her own name and through using the pen-names Iris North and Joan Wentworth Wood.[2]
