Virginia Christine was a blonde American actress generally seen playing maids or downtrodden housewives.

In her later career, she spent 20+ years advertising Folgers Coffee as a character called 'Mrs. Olson' on television. She was married to fellow character actor Fritz Feld from 1940 until his death in 1993.
