From Margaret Anglin's birth in 1876 in the Speaker's suite of
the Canadian House of Commons, to her death in Toronto in 1958,
Margaret Anglin: A Stage Life is a lively biography researched from
personal sources and theatre periodicals of the times. Author John
Le Vay gives us glimpses of the rich and colourful personal life
behind the stage persona. Called "Canada's greatest actress" by
Herbert Whittaker, Margaret Anglin succeeded in winning critical
acclaim for her sensitive portrayals in Shakespearean comedy and
Greek tragedy. In more contemporary productions she was praised for
her work with actor-managers James O'Neill, E.H. Sothern, Richard
Mansfield, and Henry Miller, and playwrights Somerset Maugham, H.A.
Jones, and Paul Kester.
