PEGGY WOOD
The Broadway star is shown as Portia in The Merchant of Venice (1928).
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To/Edward J Berry/Sincerely/Peggy Wood". Sepia, 7x9. Shown as the much-wooed Portia in a 1928 Broadway version of Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. Pencil note (unknown hand) on verso: "Peggy Wood/1947/Scene as Portia in 'The/Merchant of Venice." 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.
