Brenda Bruce found success and steady employment playing supporting roles on stage, television, and in feature films. She began her long career at age 12 as a dancer in a chorus line. Bruce boosted her reputation after working with the Birmingham Repertory company from 1936 through the early '40s when she returned to the London theater scene to establish herself as a key interpreter of George Bernard Shaw's work. In 1943, Bruce launched a film career with Millions Like Us. During the war years, up until 1953, Bruce appeared in many films. In the '50s, she and her husband, director Roy Rich, hosted Rich and Rich, a highly rated British television show. Her subsequent film career includes appearances in Michael Powell's Peeping Tom (1960) and All Creatures Great and Small (1974).
