Theater

A noted stage actress in London, she appeared on Broadway between 1913 and 1965. She received the following commendation for her for her performance in a production of Rip van Winkle, opposite her father in the title role in 1911.

Miss Margery Maude played her part with peculiar sweetness. She is a charming little actress, dainty, earnest, and unaffected. Miss Winifred Emery had only a small part, but a telling one. She gave a touching rendering of an old lady in whose soul the bitterness of time was powerless to destroy the sweetness, and many eyes were moist while she was on stage.
