Marion Lorne MacDougal[2] or MacDougall (August 12, 1883[1] – May 9, 1968), known professionally as Marion Lorne, was an American actress on stage, film, and television. After a career in theatre in New York and London, Lorne made her first film in 1951, and for the remainder of her life played small roles in films and television.
