Delphi Lawrence (23 March 1932 – 11 April 2002) was an English actress. She was educated at Halidon House School in Slough, Berkshire, whilst living in Colnbrook.
Born to Barbara Yvonne (née Enever) and Louis Holzman, who wed in 1930, she was of Hungarian ancestry on her father's side. She trained as a concert pianist before becoming an actress, training at RADA and graduating in 1949. She made her first film in 1952, and, over the next decade, she established a following in British films. She graduated to lead roles but almost exclusively in "B" films.




Career


In 1962, she appeared in episode 11 of The Saint ("The Man Who Was Lucky") as Cora. One of her other prominent TV roles was around the same time, in 1961, where she played the countess in episode 6 of the TV historical adventure series Sir Francis Drake ("The English Dragon").
In 1966, she moved to the United States where she began to appear in films and television (such as Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. Julietta in S2 E05 Escape from Venice), and settled there. By the end of the 1960s her roles began to decrease in frequency and importance and in 1973 she retired. She made a brief return in 1975 in the Broadway production of The Constant Wife playing the sister of Ingrid Bergman's character.
She appeared as Vera Charles in various touring productions of Mame, opposite such stars as Susan Hayward, Celeste Holm, Ann Sothern, and Juliet Prowse playing the lead role (Mame Dennis). The last of these was in 1990, opposite Prowse. She died 12 years later, in 2002, aged 70, from undisclosed causes.
