Hollywood star and blacklist victim Marsha Hunt dies at 104

Marsha Hunt

Marsha Hunt, one of the last surviving actors from Hollywood's so-called Golden Age of the 1930s and 1940s who worked with performers ranging from Laurence Olivier to Andy Griffith in a career disrupted for a time by the McCarthy-era blacklist, has died. She was 104.


Hunt, who appeared in more than 100 movies and TV shows, died Wednesday, September 7, at her home in Sherman Oaks, California, said Roger Memos, the writer-director of the 2015 documentary "Marsha Hunt's Sweet Adversity."


Hunt appears with Donna Reed in the film, The Human Comedy (1943).
