Mary Anderson (actress)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mary Anderson (born Bebe Anderson, April 3, 1920 in Birmingham, Alabama) was a film and television actress. Many times confused with the stage actress of the same name who died in 1940, Mary Anderson appeared in a number of films in the 1940s. In 1939, when she was sixteen, Anderson made her first screen appearance as Maybelle Meriweather in Gone With the Wind. Ending her film career in the early 1950s, she occasionally acted on television, for example, in the prime-time soap opera Peyton Place. Anderson was married to cinematographer Leon Shamroy. She was sometimes credited under her birth name Bebe Anderson.
