Pamela Brown trained at the Royal
Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA). Her first appearance was as "Juliet" in
"Romeo and Juliet" at Stratford-on-Avon in 1936. She followed this with
a variety of roles for the Old Vic Company in London. She appeared on
Broadway in the 1947 production of "The Importance of Being Earnest" by
Oscar Wilde. Her screen debut was in
One of Our Aircraft Is Missing (1942)
for
Michael Powell and
Emeric Pressburger. She went on to
star in two more of Powell's films and they lived together until her
unfortunately early death from cancer. Her memorable face with eyes you
can drown in & a resonant voice always made Pamela an actress worth
watching. She was often cast as an eccentric or mysterious character
which suited her perfectly.
