Carol Marsh

Actress

Born - 10 May 1926, Southgate, London, England
Died - 6 March 2010

Gossamer-delicate, fragile-looking actress who made a striking debut opposite Richard Attenborough in Brighton Rock (1947), but failed to impose a personality on starring roles thereafter. Born Norma Simpson, Marsh played Alice in a French/US puppet/live action version of Alice in Wonderland, but it was hardly seen, and overshadowed by the Disney cartoon version which followed shortly afterwards. A few (very) light film comedies followed, then she was Fan in the 1951 Scrooge and had the female lead in a bright 'B' thriller, Salute the Toff (1952). Her last film role of any note was as the vampirised Lucy in the 1958 Dracula, although she continued acting on stage and TV until the late 1970s.
