Julia Dean (July 22, 1830 – March 6, 1868) was an American actress who made her New York debut at 16 in a starring role with the James Sheridan Knowles comedy, The Hunchback. Her performance was met with such praise that she continued to star in productions of The Hunchback over much of her twenty-year career. Although she began and ended her career on the East coast, Dean’s greatest popularity was achieved in tours of the American South and the Far West. Dean was married twice; she was the mother of four children, but died in childbirth with a stillborn son at the age of 37.
