Margo

 Margo, born María Marguerita Guadalupe Teresa Estela Bolado Castilla y O'Donnell (May 10, 1917 – July 17, 1985)

As a child, Margo trained as a dancer with Eduardo Cansino, the father of Rita Hayworth. While accompanying her uncle's band during a performance at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City, Margo was noticed by producer and director Ben Hecht and screenwriter Charles MacArthur, who cast the fifteen year old as the lead in their film Crime Without Passion. She appeared in many American motion pictures and television productions, including Lost Horizon (1937), The Leopard Man (1943), Viva Zapata! (1952), and I'll Cry Tomorrow (1955). She was also in Broadway productions of Maxwell Anderson's Masque of Kings (1937) and Sidney Kingsley's The World We Make (1939). She married actor Eddie Albert in 1945 and was later known as Margo Albert. While Margo continued to act in films until the 1960s, her career was curtailed by the television blacklist that began in 1950, with the targeting of Gypsy Rose Lee, Jean Muir, Hazel Scott, and Ireene Wicker. Margo was known for her progressive political views, but she was not a member of the Communist Party.

Eddie Albert's film career survived the blacklist, but Margo was blacklisted by the major Hollywood studios. In the years after the blacklist, Margo pursued her advocacy for arts and education. In 1970, along with Frank Lopez, a trade union activist, Margo founded Plaza de la Raza (Place of the People) in East Los Angeles. Margo's commitment to the arts extended beyond her work in East Los Angeles: she served as a steering committee member on the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities and was a member of the board of the National Council of the National Endowment for the Arts. She remained married to Albert until her death from cancer in 1985. She is buried at Westwood Memorial Park, where Eddie Albert was interred after his death in 2005.
