Ruth Hall (born Ruth Gloria Blasco Ibáñez; December 29, 1910 – October 9, 2003) was an American film actress.

Born in Jacksonville, Florida, Hall was a 1929 graduate of Henry B. Plant High School in Tampa, Florida.

Hall was a great-niece of Vicente Blasco Ibáñez, the Spanish novelist. She took her mother's maiden name as her professional name so as not to benefit from the novelist's more celebrated last name. In 1931, she signed a contract with Paramount Pictures.

Personal life

She was married to cinematographer Lee Garmes from 1933 until his death on August 31, 1978; the couple had two daughters.

Ruth Hall died in Glendale, California, aged 92.
