Biography

After she and her husband John Sanford refused to testify in 1951 before the House Un-American Activities Committee, she was blacklisted for nine years and unable to get work in Hollywood. She was hired again in 1962 by Columbia Pictures. Description above from the Wikipedia article Marguerite Roberts, licensed under CC-BY-SA, full list of contributors on Wikipedia.
