Actress

Born Marjorie Massow, she later returned to a low-key acting career before eventually opting for a career in real estate. Films include Take It or Leave It (1944), In the Meantime, Darling (1944), Kitty (1945), The Falcon's Adventure (1946), Child of Divorce (1946), Trail Street (1947), Tumbleweed (1953), To Hell and Back (1955, and an all-too-appropriate title), Tea and Sympathy (1956) and The Guns of Fort Petticoat (1957), her last.
