	Actors - Julie Haydon

Julie Haydon (June 10, 1910 - December 24, 1994) was an American actress who performed on Broadway and in films.

She was born Donatella Donaldson in Oak Grove, Illinois.

She began appearing in films in the 1930s. Some have alleged that although she didn't appear in the film herself, she and not Fay Wray, provided Ann Darrow's memorably chilling screams in the 1933 movie King Kong
, but some have disputed this claim. She was the original Laura Wingfield in the original production of Tennessee Williams' The Glass Menagerie
, a role played by Jane Wyman in the film version. In 1955, Haydon married the drama critic George Jean Nathan who died in 1958. They had no children and she never remarried.

Julie Haydon died in La Crosse, Wisconsin of cancer, aged 84. She was buried next to her husband in the Cemetery of the Gate of Heaven in Hawthorne, New York.

The Nathan-Haydon papers were donated to the La Crosse public library archives.
