Personal Quote:

Trivia:

Following her Hollywood career in 1947, she moved to New York City, married Scotland-born actor Richard Fraser and turned to TV work. They eventually moved to London, where she also did some television. Her last role was as Gary Lockwood's mother in 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). See more »
