Marjorie Nelson (November 2, 1923 – February 12, 2010) was an American actress.[1]
Born in Seattle,[2] Nelson appeared in more than eight films from 1965 to 2004 and acted on stage at the Seattle Repertory Theatre[1] beginning in 1940.[3] She acted on stage in New York for 12 years.[2]
Nelson's support of international human rights and her opposition to nuclear proliferation led to her being one of the actors blacklisted in the 1950s as a result of the House Un-American Activities Committee.[4]
In the 1960s, Nelson taught at the Cornish School of Allied Arts in Seattle.[2]
Nelson was married to actor Howard Da Silva from 1949 to 1960.[5] They had two daughters.[4] She married Seattle architect Victor Steinbrueck, and they founded the Port Townsend Festival Theatre, for which she served as the executive director.[6]
On February 12, 2010, Nelson died, aged 86.[4]
