Alexander Kirkland (1901 - death date unknown) had 11 prominent film
roles between 1931 and 1934, including Almost Married (1932), for
which he also wrote the screenplay. He was seen in A Face in the
Crowd (1957), and in a few TV appearances. He wrote several short stories
published in national magazines. Kirkland was married to famed striptease
artist Gypsy Rose Lee from 1942 to 1944, although the couple separated after
three months. After Gypsy's death in 1970, director Otto Preminger acknowledged
paternity of Erik Lee Kirkland, the only child by this marriage. Although
Forman Brown stated that Kirkland was the model for a leading character in his
early gay novel, Better Angel (1933), Kirkland was married two more
times. He owned an art gallery in Palm Beach, Florida, and then retired to an
estate in Cuernavaca, Mexico, where he was last heard from in the late 1980s.
