Biography

Mary Elizabeth Lawson, a multifaceted and accomplished stage and film actress, left an indelible mark on the entertainment industry during the 1920s and 1930s, impressing audiences with her versatility and range in both live performances and cinematic roles.

Beyond her remarkable acting career, Lawson's personal life was characterized by a series of romantic entanglements, including a notable and highly publicized relationship with the celebrated tennis player Fred Perry, as well as a romantic liaison with the married son of the esteemed Dame of Sark.

Tragically, Lawson's life was cut short during the tumultuous period of the Second World War, when she and her husband met a devastating and untimely demise in a German bombing raid on Liverpool, a poignant and heart-wrenching reminder of the devastating and far-reaching impact of war on innocent lives and the senseless loss of human life.
