Maud Gill was an English character actress, chiefly in comic roles. Born in London, she began her stage career as a dancing girl in a company run by the theatrical knight Herbert Beerbohm Tree. She recalls in her autobiography 'To See the Players' that a young Claude Rains, six years her junior, was the call-boy, who alerted the cast to their entrances. She came to notice playing Thirza Tapper, the title character in 'Eden Philpotts'' comedy play 'The Farmer's Wife', which ran for several years in London, and she repeated the role in 'Alfred Hitchcock''s silent film version. She married the actor E. Stuart Vinden and retired from acting after the 1930s. Maud Gill died in Birmingham in 1950.

I have met with a certain amount of recognition. For years I was well
known to the army of fierce little boys who guard the outer offices of
theatrical agents as a woman to whom they had to say at once: &#39;Sorry!
Nothing doing&#39;.&quot;
