RIP Peggy Stewart

Actress Peggy Stewart (real name Margaret O’Rourke) who worked steadily in Hollywood, on TV and on the stage, died May 29, just a few days short of her 96th birthday.

Her first role was in the 1930s, her last was in 2014. In between she played in more than 100 films. She was a contract player for Republic Pictures for many years.

MSTies may recall a small role she had in a TV movie originally called “The Stranger,” later re-edited and retitled (episode 305-) STRANDED IN SPACE. She had an uncredited role as an “inner council member.”

Nice appreciations of her career are here and here.

Thanks to Tim for the heads up.
