Anne Crawford

Imelda Anne Crawford (22 November 1920 – 17 October 1956) was a British film actress.

Crawford was born in Palestine to a Scottish father and an English mother, and brought up in Edinburgh. On the advice of Alastair Sim, she attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.

A contemporary of Margaret Lockwood and Phyllis Calvert, Crawford is best remembered for her roles in women's pictures of the 1940s, such as Millions Like Us (1943), Two Thousand Women (1944), and They Were Sisters (1945).

She married Wallace Douglas in 1953 and died of leukemia in a London nursing home in 1956, aged 35. The Times, on 18 October 1956, reported that she was playing in Agatha Christie's The Spider's Web, at London's Savoy Theatre, when she became ill. After acting in a stage production of The Gift, about a scientist blinded by an accident, she added a codicil to her will leaving her eyes to the International Eye Bank.
