Consuelo Lord Cezon (March 28, 1925 – February 26, 2004), known professionally as Connie Cezon, was an American film actress. She made over 30 film and television appearances between 1951 and 1964.

Early years

Born in Oakland, California,[1] Cezon attended the Hollywood Community School of the Theater as a child.[2] She has a younger brother, Ricardo.[3]

Movies and television

Cezon appeared in Ken Murray's Blackouts.[4] She played a blond "gold digger" in several Three Stooges films. Her flair for physical comedy helped, and she made memorable appearances in Corny Casanovas, Up in Daisy's Penthouse, and Tricky Dicks.[citation needed] After leaving the Columbia shorts department, Cezon had a recurring role as Perry Mason's receptionist Gertrude "Gertie" Lade on Perry Mason between 1957 and 1964.[5] She also worked as Bette Davis' stand in/double, most notably in the 1964 thriller Dead Ringer.[6]

After retiring from the screen in 1966, Cezon operated and ran a cat-boarding service in Los Angeles called Connie's Kitty Castle.[1]

Though her surname was spelled "Cezan" in the Three Stooges films, it appears as "Cezon" in all her other appearances. Cezon confirmed that the correct spelling is the latter.[1]

Death

Cezon died on February 26, 2004, in Glendale, California, of complications from breast cancer surgery.[citation needed] She was interred alongside her parents, Pedro and Mireio, in the Great Mausoleum at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale.
