Edna Payne (December 5, 1891 – January 31, 1953) was an American silent screen motion picture actress. She was not in any feature-length films, but is regarded as a "pioneer" in the film industry because she was in many short films from 1912 through 1916.

Career

Although her film career was confined to the 1910s, she took part in countless productions.
