Madge Titheradge (2 July 1887 – 14 November 1961) was an actress, born into a theatrical family in Melbourne, Australia.

[edit] Biography

Her father was the English-born actor George Sutton Titheradge, and the eleven-year-old Madge had already done stage work with Australia's Brough-Boucicault and Bland Holt companies when the family returned to Britain in 1898. She made her London stage debut at fifteen, and soon became a popular actress and beauty, her photograph adorning many a postcard and cigarette card. After touring Canada and the United States in stage productions she made her screen debut in the 1916's British film A Fair Impostor, and later the same year went to Hollywood to star in Brigadier Gerard. Her subsequent Hollywood films were 1920's Her Story and the early co-production David and Jonathan, a British funded film shot in a Hollywood studio.
