Joan Chandler (born Joan Imel Cheeseman; August 24, 1923 – May 11, 1979) was an American actress who notably starred in Rope (1948) with James Stewart and Humoresque (1946) with Joan Crawford.

The second of three daughters to William Carl and Imel Geraldine Cheeseman (née Beach)^, Chandler was born in Butler, Pennsylvania. She took piano lessons from her musician mother and began studying ballet when she was 5. She attended Butler High School[1] and the School of Arts at Bennington College.[2] She also studied at the Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre in New York.[1] Before she became a professional actress, she toured with a ballet company.[3]

A founding member of The Actors Studio,[4] Chandler appeared in three feature films, five Broadway plays, and about 12 television programs, such as Studio One and Starlight Theatre. She was married twice: first to David McKay, with whom she had one daughter; then to Dr. Charles C. Hogan. Both marriages ended in divorce.[5]

Chandler died at age 55 of cancer in New York City.[5]
