Wyatt, Jane Waddington

Wyatt, Jane Waddington
▪ 2007

      American actress (b. Aug. 12, 1910?, Campgaw, N.J.—d. Oct. 20, 2006, Bel Air, Calif.), won three Emmy Awards (1958–60) for her role as Margaret Anderson, the archetypical housewife and mother on the popular television sitcom Father Knows Best (1954–60). Probably her most compelling performance in a motion picture was as a luminous Shangri-la beauty who bewitches plane-crash survivor Ronald Colman in Lost Horizon (1937). Other notable film roles included those in None but the Lonely Heart (1944), opposite Cary Grant; Canadian Pacific (1949), as a heroic nurse; and Task Force (1949), as Gary Cooper's faithful wife. She made two Father Knows Best reunion made-for-TV films and earned a fan following during the 1960s portraying the human mother of Mr. Spock, the Vulcan crew member of TV's Star Trek space voyagers. She also appeared in that role for the film Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986).
