Peg Murray

Margaret L. "Peg" Murray (born February 14, 1924) is an American actress of stage, musical theatre and television. Murray graduated from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, then known as Western Reserve College, in 1945.[1]

The Denver, Colorado-born actress, one of three children and the only daughter of John and Helen Murray,[2] won a Tony Award for her performance as the vile "Fraulein Kost" in the original Broadway production of Cabaret (1966). She understudied the role of "Fraulein Schneider", originated by Lotte Lenya, and eventually took over that role full-time when Lenya left the production.[3]

Murray later worked in daytime television playing the roles of Carrie Johnson Lovett on Love of Life and modeling agent Olga Swenson on All My Children. She also substituted for Constance Ford for several weeks as Ada Hobson on Another World, and starred in the short-lived NBC-TV sitcom Me & Mrs. C. Her film credits included roles in Some of My Best Friends Are... (1971), W.W. and the Dixie Dancekings (1975) and Act of Vengeance (1986).[4]

Affiliations

Never married, she is affiliated with the Herstory Writers Group. She resides primarily in New York City and Southold, Long Island.

Stage productions
gollark: The idea of a "ControversialEsolangs" for that probably wouldn't work well for various reasons, including the difficulty of moving active conversations, cognitive overhead of switching and lots of overhead deciding when to switch, a smaller set of people there even if they could otherwise participate interestingly, and somewhat more difficult-to-express issues like, er, selection effects.
gollark: I think it's a nice-to-have property but not worth sacrificing much else for.
gollark: You can see when it is *happening*, if you happen to be active, and ignore it for a bit.
gollark: You can just mute them *when* discomforting things happen, or possibly mute <#348702212110680064> if you mostly care about esolangs.
gollark: See, I was halfway through writing about why that wasn't a good solution.
