Kelly, Gregory (1891?–1927), actor. The boyish‐looking performer from New York, whose promising career was cut short by his early death, performed in stock with his wife, Ruth
Gordon, then won rave notices as Willie Baxter, the puppy‐lovelorn hero in
Seventeen (1918) and as Peter Jones, the yokel looking to strike it rich on Broadway, in
The Butter and Egg Man (1925).
