Anne Revere
With her husband, the playwright and director Samuel Rosen, Revere moved to New York where the couple ran an acting school, and Revere returned to Broadway. She won a Tony Award in 1961 for her role in Lillian Hellman's Toys in the Attic. Still an outsider in Hollywood, Revere was not considered for the film version which was played by Wendy Hiller.
In her later years, she appeared in roles in television before her death from pneumonia in Locust Valley, New York. Among her soap opera roles were roles on The Edge of Night, Search for Tomorrow, and Ryan's Hope.
