Ray Milland (January 3, 1905 – March 10, 1986) was a successful Welsh actor and director who worked primarily in the United States. His screen career ran from 1929 to 1985.

He was born Reginald Truscott-Jones in Neath, Wales, and took his stage surname from an area of the town. He married Malvinia Warner on September 30, 1932, and they remained together until his death. They had a son, Daniel, and an adopted daughter, Victoria.

The pinnacle of his career came in 1946 when he won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of an alcoholic in the film The Lost Weekend (1945). He achieved some success as a director, before his popularity later slumped and he was reduced to acting in low-budget horror movies such as X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes.

@MovieMayor Well, Ray Walston may have Martian powers but Ray Milland is *invisible.* Ray W's only real defense is "old man cuteness."
