Stringer Davis
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stringer Davis (born James Buckley Stringer Davis on 4 June 1899 in Birkenhead, Cheshire (now Merseyside)) was an English actor. In World War II, he served in the army, where he was still serving when he married Margaret Rutherford by proxy, using an old friend from his regional repertory days.
Stringer Davis was married to actress Margaret Rutherford from 1945 until her death in 1972. He played a gentle-mannered English character actor in minor roles in films and theatre, normally with Rutherford. She was not in the best of health and he toured with her to tend to her health problems.
Rutherford portrayed Miss Marple in four movies from 1961 to 1965. Davis portrayed Mr Stringer in these films, as a close companion of Rutherford's character, Miss Marple.
He died on 29 August 1973, in Chalfont St. Giles, Buckinghamshire, England, aged 74, only fifteen months after his wife.
