Biography:Supporting actress "Irene Tedrow" spent most of her 60-year career on stage, but she also had considerable experience in feature films and on television. Slender and possessing an austere beauty, Tedrow was well suited for the rather prim and moral characters she most often played. After establishing herself on stage in the early '30s, she made her film debut in 1937. She gained fame during the 1940s playing Mrs. Janet Archer in the Meet Corliss Archer film series. She kept the role in the subsequent television series. She played Mrs. Elkins on "Dennis the Menace" between 1959 and 1963. In 1976, Tedrow earned an Emmy for her performance in "Eleanor and Franklin". ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
