Although this is not a complete list by any means, the following actresses were known to have had lesbian relationships with fellow actresses during Hollywood's heyday.

Agnes Moorehead and Debbie Reynolds were very close friends, according to them both, but it has been told by Debbie Reynold's son that they had an affair for years.

Alla Nasimova got around, having had affairs with Dolly Wilde, Eva Le Gallienne, Maude Adams, Patsy Miller, Tallulah Bankhead, among others.

Barbara Stanwyck had affairs with Tallulah Bankhead, Joan Crawford and Claudette Colbert.  In a 1980's interview for a book entitled "Hollywood Lesbians" by Boze Hadleigh, she neither confirmed nor denied her love of women, but implied the fact by skipping the questions she didn't want to answer.
