Mary Maurice (15 November 1844, Morristown, Ohio – 30 April 1918, Port Carbon, Pennsylvania) was an American actress, who appeared 139 films between 1909 and 1918.

This Vitagraph "mother lady" was a Philadelphian. During her long stage career, she appeared in support of Booth, Barrett, Jefferson, Modjeska and her last engagement was with Robert B. Mantell. She did not mind admitting that she was past sixty, but she had the heart of youth and was the best loved of screen mothers. She played in both The Goddess and The Battle Cry of Peace.[1]

She, Russell Bassett, Sarah Bernhardt, W. Chrystie Miller, the veteran character actor Matt Snyder and Harold Lloyd regular Anna Townsend were the six oldest people working in film during the 1910s.
