Diana Lewis (September 18, 1919 – January 18, 1997)[1] was an American film actress and an Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer contract player.

Early years

The daughter of vaudeville performers,[2] Lewis was born in Asbury Park, New Jersey. She attended Fairfax High School in West Hollywood.[2]

Career

Lewis began her film career in It's a Gift (1934) and worked steadily over the next few years, usually in minor roles. Her more notable films include It's a Gift, Gold Diggers in Paris (1938), Go West (1940), and Johnny Eager (1941). She was the love interest of Andy Hardy as Daphne Fowler in Andy Hardy Meets Debutante (1940).[3]

Marriage

Lewis met actor William Powell, who was 27 years her senior, at MGM in 1940, and they married after a courtship of just 3 weeks. She retired from acting in 1943. The couple remained together for 44 years until Powell's death at age 91 in 1984.

Death

Lewis died from pancreatic cancer in Rancho Mirage, California, aged 77. She was interred at Cathedral City's Desert Memorial Park in Riverside County, California, alongside Powell, and her stepson, William David Powell.[4][5]

Affiliations and honors

Lewis was an active supporter of women's golf and the LPGA. The LPGA's William and Mousie Powell Award is named in honor of the Powells.

In 2000, a Golden Palm Star on the Palm Springs, California, Walk of Stars was dedicated to her.[6]
