Margot Lister

A performer born in the late summer of 1902, she began life in Lewisham, London, and pursued the arts with quiet persistence. Her early years immersed her in local theatre circles, where she developed a calm, versatile stage presence and a commitment to the craft of acting. Over time, she built a body of work across stage and screen, characterized by thoughtful characterization, precise timing, and a steady work ethic. She approached each role with curiosity, seeking to illuminate the human condition through empathy and disciplined technique. Offstage, she was described as thoughtful, considerate, and committed to community through creative outlets. Her life reflects a sustained dedication to storytelling and performance.
