Rhea Ginger Mitchell (December 10, 1890 – September 16, 1957) was an American film actress and screenwriter.
She began her career during the silent film era, and went on to appear in over 100 films.
In her early career, she earned the name of "the little stunt girl" because of her willingness to attempt thrilling scenes in motion pictures.
Mitchell's first major role was in On the Night Stage (1915), followed by a part in The Diamond from the Sky, a serial film starring Lottie Pickford.
Through the mid-1910s, Mitchell appeared in numerous Western films with William S.
Hart.
Following the advent of sound pictures, Mitchell continued to work in film, though often appearing uncredited, before retiring in 1952.
Some of her later credits include Green Dolphin Street (1947), State of the Union (1948), and Stars in My Crown (1950).
In 1957, after having retired from acting two years prior, Mitchell was murdered by a tenant in an apartment building she owned in Los Angeles.
She is interred at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
