Patricia Hitchcock

 Patricia Hitchcock (July 7, 1928 – August 9, 2021)

She was the only child of English director Alfred Hitchcock and Alma Reville, and had small roles in several of his films, starting with Stage Fright (1950). In that film, because she bore a resemblance to the star, Jane Wyman, her father asked if she would mind also doubling for Wyman in the scenes that required "danger driving". Hitchcock had a small uncredited role as an extra in her father's 1936 Sabotage. She and her mother, Alma Reville, are in the crowd waiting for, then watching, the Lord Mayor's Show parade. Hitchcock also worked for Jean Negulesco on The Mudlark (1950), which starred Irene Dunne and Alec Guinness, playing a palace maid, and she had a bit-part in DeMille's The Ten Commandments (1956). She also appeared in small roles in Strangers on a Train (1951), and Psycho (1960), both directed by Alfred Hitchcock. In addition, she appeared in ten episodes of her father's half-hour television show, Alfred Hitchcock Presents. She married Joseph E. O'Connell, Jr., 17 January 1952, at Our Lady Chapel in St. Patrick's Cathedral, New York. They decided to have their wedding there because Hitchcock had many friends on the East Coast and O'Connell had relatives in Boston. They had three daughters together, and were married until her husband's death in 1994. Patricia Hitchcock died on August 9, 2021 at age 93.
