Primetime Creative Arts Emmys: Photos We Love

Beatrix Thomson was born on March 13, 1900 in London, England. She was an actor, known for Crown v. Stevens (1936), The Old Curiosity Shop (1934), The Dreyfus Case (1931), and The Story of Shirley Yorke (1948). She was married to Claude Rains. She died in February 1986 in Surrey, England.

She spent most of her career on the stage in Britain. In 1929, she became the first British actress to hold an aviation license. She spent WWII as a volunteer in aircraft production. She returned to the stage after the war was over.

Primarily a stage actress, Thomson was already 35 by the time she was cast in her most prominent screen role, the femme fatale murderess of Crown V. Stevens (1935). The cameras and a lot of makeup could not hide the fact that time was taking its its toll, and that she was definitely past her prime. She returned to the stage and only rarely faced the cameras again afterwards.

Father: Benjamin Thomas Lindsay Thomson; Mother: Esther Florence Bowker.
