Born Marjorie Wollenberg in San Francisco on July 26, 1918, pretty Marjorie Lord moved with her family to New York in 1933, during the depths of the Great Depression. With
training in both acting and dance, she appeared on Broadway in 1935 in The Old Maid and also toured with the play. Her good notices earned her a a contract with RKO
in early 1937. Her first film for the studio was the action flick Border Cafe (1937; with John Beal). After several more features with RKO, Lord's contract was dropped.
She returned to touring in stage plays and took the lead role in the Westinghouse travelogue film The Middleton Family at the New York World's Fair (1939). After
touring southern California with Edward Everett Horton in the play Springtime for Henry, Universal signed her to a long-term contract.
