Florence Lindon-Travers (27 May 1913 – 23 October 2001), known professionally as Linden Travers, was a British actress.




Life and career


Travers was born in Houghton-le-Spring, County Durham, the daughter of Florence (née Wheatley) and William Halton Lindon-Travers. She was the elder sister of Bill Travers, and attended La Sagesse. She made her first stage appearance at the Newcastle Playhouse in 1933. She made her West End debut the following year in Ivor Novello's Murder in Mayfair, and appeared in her first film, Children of the Fog in 1935.
While she had leading roles in her earlier film career, such as The Last Adventurers (1937), Brief Ecstasy (1937) and The Terror (1938); she was mainly a supporting actress. One of her most widely seen performances was as "Mrs. Todhunter" in Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes (1938). She also appeared in Carol Reed's Bank Holiday (1938) and The Stars Look Down (1940), as well as The Ghost Train (1941), Quartet (1948) and The Bad Lord Byron (1949).
In the forties she played Miss Blandish in both the well received 1942 stage adaptation in which she starred with Robert Newton which had 203 performances at the Prince of Wales Theatre, London and the widely panned 1948 film version of James Hadley Chase's 1939 novel No Orchids for Miss Blandish. She retired in 1948, after her second marriage. In 1999, she took part in the television programme Reputations: Alfred Hitchcock, paying tribute to the man who had directed her sixty years earlier.
She died in Cornwall, aged 88, in 2001. Her daughter Susan Travers and granddaughter Charlotte Lucas also became actresses.
