Linden Travers (27 May 1913 – 23 October 2001) was a British actress. ==Life and career== Travers was born Florence Lindon-Travers in Houghton-le-Spring, in Sunderland, County Durham, the daughter of Florence (née Wheatley) and William Halton Lindon-Travers. She was the elder sister of Bill Travers, and attended La Sagesse. She made her first stage appearance at the Newcastle Playhouse in 1933. She made her West End debut the following year in Ivor Novello's ''Murder in Mayfair'', and appeared in her first film, ''Children of the Fog'' in 1935. She played a substantial role in Carol Reed’s ''Bank Holiday'' (1938). One of her most widely seen performances was as "Mrs." Todhunter in Alfred Hitchcock's ''The Lady Vanishes'' (1938). She also appeared in ''The Stars Look Down'' (1940) ''The Ghost Train'' (1941), and ''Quartet'' (1948). Her career consisted mainly of supporting roles, but she also played occasional lead roles, such as Miss Blandish in both the well received 1942 stage adaptation and widely panned 1948 film version of James Hadley Chase's 1939 novel ''No Orchids for Miss Blandish''. She retired in 1948, after her second marriage. In 1999, she took part in the television programme ''Reputations: Alfred Hitchcock'', paying tribute to the man who had directed her sixty years earlier. She died in Cornwall, aged 88, in 2001. Her daughter Susan Travers also became an actress. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Linden Travers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
