Short Biography
Jobyna Howland (March 31, 1880 – June 7, 1936) was an American stage and screen actress. Born to a Civil War veteran named Joby Howland who at eleven was one of the youngest enlistees in the conflict, and his wife Mary C. Bunting, she was given the feminine version of her father's name. Tall, regal and beautiful, Howland was another model for Charles Dana Gibson's famous sketching The Gibson Girl. Howland made her first appearance on the New York Stage in 1899 managed by Daniel Frohman. During her long theatrical career she apprenticed everything from drawing room farces to musical comedies always seeming to play the other woman, a best friend's pal or a distant cousin. She didn't achieve the kind of stardom of other beautiful actresses such as Elsie Ferguson, but was content to play the amiable and much needed support so vital in numerous Broadway productions.
