Josephine Whittell (November 30, 1883 – June 1, 1961) was an American character actress of the silent and sound film eras. Born on November 30, 1883 in San Francisco, California, she began her film career during the silent era, appearing in a featured role in 1917's Alimony. She would only appear in four silent films, between 1917 and 1921, before taking a hiatus from the film industry. In 1931 Whittell would return to films, with supporting roles in two Wheeler and Woolsey comedies, Caught Plastered and Peach O'Reno. During her 43 year career, she would appear in over 70 films. In the early 1930s, she would appear frequently as the older seductress in films, prior to the enactment of the film code in the mid-1930s.
