Biography

Barbara Ann Murray, a renowned English actress, was born on September 27, 1929. She was married to the esteemed actor John Justin, with whom she had three daughters, until their divorce in 1964. Throughout the 1940s and 1950s, Murray's career flourished as a fresh-faced leading lady in numerous British films, including the critically acclaimed Passport to Pimlico (1949) and Meet Mr. Lucifer (1953).

As her career continued to evolve, Murray's film work extended into the 1960s, with notable roles in Tony Hancock's The Punch and Judy Man and other projects. However, she became increasingly prominent on television, earning recognition for her iconic portrayal of Lady Pamela Wilder in the 1960s drama series The Plane Makers, later renamed The Power Game.

Murray's extensive television credits include an impressive array of shows, such as The Escape of R.D.7, Danger Man, The Saint, Department S, Strange Report, The Pallisers, The Mackinnons, Doctor Who (in the serial Black Orchid),Albert and Victoria, and The Bretts.
