Alfred Hitchcock’s Only Child, Daughter Pat Hitchcock, Dies at 93

By Movieguide® Staff

Pat Hitchcock, the daughter, and only child of famed director Alfred Hitchcock, died on Aug. 9 at the age of 93.

Katie O’Connell-Fiala confirmed her mother’s death in Thousand Oaks, California.

Hitchcock appeared in many of her father’s movies, like STRANGERS ON A TRAIN, PSYCHO and STAGE FRIGHT, as well as TV series like SUSPENSE and MY LITTLE MARGIE.  She also starred in movies not directed by her father, like THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.

Variety reported:

During the 1970s, she appeared in TV movies “Skateboard,” “Six Characters in Search of an Author” and “Ladies of the Corridor.”

She was born Patricia Hitchcock on July 7, 1928 to Alfred Hitchcock and his wife Alma Reville. The Hitchcocks moved to Los Angeles in 1939, and she decided to act as a child. She began acting on the stage, appearing in the Broadway play “Violet.”

Although she mostly retired from acting to raise her children, Pat Hitchcock contributed to Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine and co-wrote a biography of her mother, “Alma Hitchcock: The Woman Behind the Man,” with Laurent Bouzereau.

Pat Hitchcock is survived by her three daughters Mary Stone, Tere Carrubba and Katie O’Connell-Fiala, an attorney at Amblin Partners.
