Carroll McComas (June 27, 1886 – November 9, 1962) was a stage, film and television actress. McComas began acting on the Broadway stage while still in her teens. Her greatest personal stage triumph was Miss Lulu Bett in the 1920-21 season.

She was the daughter of Judge C. C. McComas and wife Ellen Moore.

Her films roles were few and far between. She made her silent movie debut in 1916 in When Love Is King, a still extant film. Her second and last silent film came in 1920 in Jack Straw directed by William C. deMille and based on a 1908 stage play W. Somerset Maugham that starred John Drew, Jr. & Mary Boland. This movie still survives. McComas interrupted her screen career after marrying Selskar M Gunn, Vice President of the Rockefeller Foundation in 1933. Gunn died in 1944 and McComas returned in 1953 to play a supporting role in Jamaica Run where she appeared as the mother of Wendell Corey and Arlene Dahl. McComas appeared in several pioneering television programs in the 1950s.

Based upon a review of the plot in a film publication, Jack Straw (Warwick) is an iceman who becomes a waiter to be closer to the girl (McComas) he is interested in. Later, to impress her, he impersonates an Archduke from Pomerania. A Count from Pomerania (Brower) who is the ambassador arrives and learns of the long-missing son of royalty. The girl's mother (Ashton) learns of the trick being played by Jack. Just when Jack is exposed as being a fraud, it turns out that he is the genuine article. The girl's mother then gladly announces her daughter's engagement to Jack.
