Margery Maude

Margery Kathleen Maude (29 April 1889 – 7 August 1979) was an English actress of stage, screen and television.

Family

Maude was born in Wimbledon, London, the elder daughter of actors Cyril Maude and Winifred Emery. She married Joseph Warren Burden on 23 July 1917 in New York City. Maude and Burden had three children: Joseph Warren Burden Jr. (1918–1944), Winifred Emery Burden and Pamela Maude Burden. She died in Cleveland, Ohio, at the age of 90.

Stage

She appeared on Broadway between 1913 and 1965. She received the following commendation for her performance in a production of Rip van Winkle, opposite her father in the title role in 1911. Her mother also had a role in the play.

Miss Margery Maude played her part with peculiar sweetness. She is a charming little actress, dainty, earnest, and unaffected. Miss Winifred Emery had only a small part, but a telling one. She gave a touching rendering of an old lady in whose soul the bitterness of time was powerless to destroy the sweetness, and many eyes were moist while she was on stage. (The Playgoer and Society Illustrated, vol. V, new series, no. 25, London, October 1911, p. 29)
