Margaret Victoria Anderson (September 2, 1898 – October 12, 1993)[citation needed] known professionally as Myrtle Lind was an American film actress. She was one of Mack Sennett's Bathing Beauties and appeared in several comedy films including with Oliver Hardy and John Gilbert. The Library of Congress has a photo of her holding a large camera on the beach.[1]

Lind transitioned from Bathing Beauty to an actress opposite comedians and then to drama.[2]
