Peggy Wood (1892-1978) appeared in at least 30 Broadway plays over half a
century (1911-1960), singing in musicals but also playing comic and dramatic
parts. In the 1920s, she was an occasional visitor to the intellectual circle
known as the Algonquin Round Table, dining daily at New York's Algonquin
Hotel. She played mostly supporting roles in films, but starred in the
popular TV series I Remember Mama (1949-1957). She received an
Oscar nomination as Best Supporting Actress as the Mother Superior in The
Sound of Music (1965), although her singing voice was gone by then and
her songs had to be dubbed. Fine condition.
