 Glynis Johns Biography :: Hollywood.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
A versatile actress most often associated with comedy, Johns showed her dramatic mettle with warm portrayals in "Frieda" (1947), playing the sister-in-law who befriends the German war bride (Mai Zetterling) of David Farrar, and "State Secret" (1950), as the half-English girl drawn in on the side of Douglas Fairbanks Jr.
A vivacious delight in her Oscar-nominated supporting turn as a hotelkeeper who sets her sights on a matrimonially-evasive Peter Ustinov in the Australian-set "The Sundowners" (1960), she may be best remembered as the nutty suffragette wife of David Tomlinson and mother of Julie Andrews' charges in the Disney tour de force "Mary Poppins" (1964).
Fiercely protective of the part, Johns declaimed that no one else would sing her songs and recovered sufficiently to score a personal triumph and a Tony Award as Lead Actress in a Musical.

When young Jane Lindstorm's (Glynis Johns) car breaks down, she makes her way to a somewhat frightening-looking mansion for help.
Once there, however, her problems go from bad worse: Dr. Caligari (Dan O'Herlihy), the owner of the house, begins taking Jane on a slow, torturous decent into her psyche that makes her increasingly uncomfortable.
As the abducted Jane, Glynis Johns is alternately prim and coquettish, and Dan O'Herlihy brings mystery and menace to Caligari, Jane's kidnapper, tormentor, and, ultimately, her healer.

An American sitcom for the Hollywood-based British film/stage actress Glynis Johns, in which she starred as Glynis Granville, a mystery writer and amateur sleuth.
The device of having a wacky wife embroiling her down-to-earth husband (in this case an attorney) in a series of adventures had worked well enough before for producer Jess Oppenheimer with I Love Lucy but despite this, and the resources of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz's studio Desilu, the formula didn't click this time around.
