Early life
Margaret Anderson was born in Adelaide, South Australia, in 1897, the youngest of four children born to Jessie Margaret (née Saltmarsh; 19 October 1862 – 21 November 1950), a Scottish-born prospector and pioneering prospector.
She attended Norwood, a private school where her training ended before graduation.
In A Royal Divorce, she made her professional debut (as Francee Anderson) in 1915, portraying Stephanie at the Theatre Royal in Sydney. Julius Knight, the Scottish actor who later credited with laying the foundations of her acting experience, was the company's chief. She appeared in The Scarlet Pimpernel, The Three Musketeers, Madame Beacauire, and David Garrick's adaptations. She toured New Zealand in 1917.
Anderson was aspirational and wanted to leave Australia. Most local actors travelled to London, but the war made it impossible, so she decided on the United States. She went to California but was unsuccessful for four months, then moved to New York, with the same lack of success.
She found employment with the Emma Bunting Stock Company in 1918-19, following a period of poverty and illness. She then toured with other stock firms.
Personal life
Anderson was married twice and declared that "neither visitation was a jolly holiday":

She appeared in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock as the Vulcan High Priestess T'Lar in 1984.
On the NBC serial Santa Barbara in the same year, she began a three-year stint as matriarch Minx Lockridge.When asked why, she replied "Why not?
It's just like doing a play."She had professed to be a fan of the daytime television show – but after signing with Santa Barbara, she complained about her lack of screen time. Minx's highlight was when she revealed the horrible truth that she had swapped Channing Capwell with Brick Wallace as a baby, preventing her illegitimate grandson from being raised as a Capwell. Emmy Nomination became a Supporter Actress Emmy Nominating Actress Emmy Nomination, but her screen time afterward faded to infrequent appearances.
