MARJORIE GATESON
The actress' handwritten resume from the archive of Theatre World and Screen World, a comprehensive record of American stage and film since 1945
Autograph Resume signed, 1 page, 8½x11. New York City, no date. Printed biographical form on which signer has supplied details: date and place of birth, education and professional training, and stage and screen experience. Marjorie Gateson (1891-1977) made her stage debut in 1913, and was a seasoned veteran of vaudeville and Broadway when she entered films in the early 1930s. She played character roles in many Hollywood productions, typically as an upper-crust matron: taught to box by Harold Lloyd in The Milky Way (1934) and trying to thwart Mae West's social climbing in Goin' to Town (1935). She had a long run as matriarch Grace Harris Tyrell on daytime TV drama The Secret Storm (1954-1968). Theatre World, founded in 1945 by Daniel Blum, is America's oldest annual record of Broadway, Off-Broadway and regional theatre, referenced by industry professionals, historians, students and theatre fans worldwide. Until 1998, when a separate nonprofit corporation was established, Theatre World's editorial staff bestowed the prestigious Theatre World Awards for outstanding Broadway and Off-Broadway debuts. Screen World (from 1950) and Dance World (from 1966), administered from the same office, furnished comprehensive information on those entertainment genres. John A. Willis (1916-2010), active in Theatre World from the beginning, became its chief editor in 1965, holding that position until 2008. Willis is regarded as one of the foremost theatre and film historians of the 20th century. While producing (and presenting) the annual Theatre World Awards, Willis also served on the nominating committee for the Tony Awards. Theatre World, which received its own Tony for Excellence in Theatre in 2001, continues under chief editor Ben Hodges. Normal mailing folds. Lightly creased and toned. Notches at right edge. Otherwise, fine condition.
