Amelita Ward

Amelita Ward (July 17, 1923 – April 26, 1987) was an American film actress. She played supporting roles in over 20 films between 1943 and 1949, generally in B Pictures such as Gangway for Tomorrow and The Falcon in Danger (1943). She was sometimes credited as Lita Ward.

Ward's father was Claude "Bud" Ward, a production manager for NBC.

Two producers discovered Ward while they were in Harlingen, Texas, filming scenes on location. That led to her first film role, in Aerial Gunner (1943).

Ward married Leo Gorcey on February 10, 1949, in Ensenada, Mexico. They had two children and later divorced in February 1956.
