The actress Mary Clare made her stage debut in 1912 and soon turned
out to be a versatile actress who was able to impersonate very different
characters.
When she entered the film business with "The Black Spider" (20) she
was busy for the theater and the film alternately from now on.
In the next years she took part in the silent movies "The Skin Game"
(21), "Foolish Monte Carlo" (22), "Lights of London" (23) and "The Constant
Nymph" (28).

(37), Alfred Hitchcock's "The Lady Vanishes" (38), "The Citadel" (38) and
"A Girl Must Live" (39).
Mary Clare normally played support roles, only seldom she acted as the
leading actress in front of the camera like in the movie "Mrs. Pym of Scotland
Yard" (40).
