This is a list of living actors from the Golden Age of Hollywood. These are actors who are still living who had a credited role in at least one Hollywood film between the end of the silent era in 1927/1929 and 1948/1949, the beginning of the demise of the Hollywood studio system. Entries are from oldest to youngest. Actors are listed with the year of their Hollywood debut, along with any films they had credited roles in (a maximum of seven) which are now considered classics. Films listed include those produced after United States v. Paramount Pictures, Inc., the 1948 federal case considered the first "nail in the coffin" of the studio system, up to the near-bankruptcy of many major studios in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
