Biography:American character actress "Anne Seymour" was descended from an Irish theatrical family, active "on the boards" since the early 18th century. On stage from 1928, she went on to become one of the radio industry's busiest leading ladies, starring in such serials as "The Story of Mary Marlin", "Woman of America", "Whispering Streets" and (briefly, when actress Lucille Wall fell ill) Portia Faces Life. She appeared with equal frequency on television, accepting innumerable guest-star assignments and co-starring on the weekly series "Empire" (1962) and The Tim Conway Show (1970). Seymour's first film was the 1949 Oscar-winner "All the King's Men", in which she played Lucy Stark, the politically convenient but cruelly neglected wife of Southern demagogue Willie Stark ("Broderick Crawford"). She went on to appear in such roles as Mrs. Tarbell in "Pollyanna" (1960) and Aunt Ev in "The Miracle Worker"... Full Biography
