Timeline
May Allison (June 14, 1890 – March 27, 1989) was an American actress whose greatest success was achieved in the early part of the 20th century in silent films, although she also appeared on stage.
Allison was born in Rising Fawn, Georgia, the youngest of five children born to John Samuel Allison and Nannie Virginia (née Wise) Allison.
She made her Broadway debut in 1911 as "Beauty" in Walter Browne's Everywoman before settling in Hollywood, California in the early days of motion pictures.
Allison's screen debut was as an ingenue in the 1915 star-making Theda Bara vehicle A Fool There Was.
When Allison was cast that same year opposite actor Harold Lockwood in the Allan Dwan directed romantic film David Harum, audiences quickly became enamored of the onscreen duo.
The pair starred in approximately twenty-five highly successful features together during the World War I era and became one of the first celebrated on-screen romantic duos.
Allison and Lockwood's highly popular film romances ended, however, when in 1918 Lockwood died at the age of 31 after contracting Spanish influenza, a deadly epidemic that swept the world from 1918 through 1919 killing 50 to 100 million people globally.
Allison's career then faltered markedly without her popular leading male co-star.
Allison was secretly married to Col. William Stephenson in Santa Ana, California, in December 1919, but the marriage was annulled in February 1920.
She continued to act in films throughout the 1920s, although she never received the same amount of public acclaim as when she starred opposite Harold Lockwood.
On Thanksgiving day in 1920, Allison married writer and actor Robert Ellis.
Her filing explained the couple had married on November 25, 1920 in Greenwich, Connecticut and were separated about November 5, 1923.
Allison filed for divorce from Ellis in December 1923, citing cruelty as the reason.
On November 15, 1926, witnessed by Ivan and Adela Rogers St. Johns, she married Photoplay magazine editor James R. Quirk, a union that lasted until his death in 1932.
Allison's last marriage, to Cleveland industrialist Carl Norton Osborne, took place on March 2, 1934 and lasted until his death in 1982.
In her later years, Allison spent much of her time at her vacation home in Tucker's Town, Bermuda, and was a patron of the Cleveland Orchestra.
Allison died of respiratory failure in Bratenahl, Ohio, in 1989 at the age of 98, survived by a stepdaughter and four stepgrandchildren.
She was buried at the Gates Mills South Cemetery in Gates Mills, Ohio.
