Romaine Fielding (May 22, 1868 – December 15, 1927), was a American actor screenwriter and film director.
Born William Grant Blandin in [Riceville, Iowa], he worked and acted in live theatre for a number of years until 1911 when he turned to acting, writing and directing silent films for Philadelphia-based Lubin Studios. The flamboyant Fielding served as General Manager of Lubin's West Coast operations where he made a number of Mexican-themed western-style films and adventure films on location in California, Arizona, and New Mexico.
He married Mabel van Valkenburg in 1907 but divorced ten years later. His second marriage in 1918 to Naomi Sachs [Stage name:Joan Arliss], with whom he remained until his passing, produced three children.
Following the demise of Lubin Studios in 1917, Romaine Fielding was out of filmmaking until 1920 after which he continued to work in film until his death in Hollywood at the age of fifty-nine from a blood clot. He is buried at Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California.
