Born in 1909, Margaret Sullavan made her first appearance in Norfolk, Virginia. On the surface, her childhood seemed charmed: Her father was a wealthy stockbroker, and her parents expected great things of Margaret and her brothers. Yet despite this luxe living, one very critical thing was missing from the young Margaret's life. Getty Images
Sullavan was a frail child, and suffered from a painful muscular weakness in her legs that affected her ability to walk. This had devastating consequences. She wasn't well enough to socialize with any children her age until she was six years old, leading to an immensely lonely existence for the little girl. And once she recovered, things got even m...
Sullavan’s snooty parents had ideas about who their daughter should befriend, and wanted her to associate only with people of a certain class. So they were appalled when Sullavan, who was quickly turning into an adventurous tomboy, connected with the no-frills lads from the poorer neighborhoods. As Sullavan later admitted, “I liked to be out roughi...
It wasn't long before Sullavan was too big for the crinolines her parents were trying to lace her into. She was much too ambitious to become a mere debutante, and became the president of the student body at her boarding school instead. The smart cookie even delivered the salutatory oration. Soon, however, Sullavan would turn her smarts toward revol...
Up until 1927, Sullavan's well-to-do parents still held out hope that their little sweetie would become a society darling. Sullavan dashed those hopes to the ground. Against their express wishes, she moved to Boston to study drama and dance, a theatrical line of profession that her parents thought was totally gauche. And boy, did they show their di...
Beside themselves with the fear that their Maggie would turn herself into a hussy "actress," the Sullavans cut their daughter's allowance down to the bare minimum in an attempt to pressure her back home. Ha, like that would ever work. Margaret rolled up her sleeves and got a job as a clerk to make ends meet. She was right to tough it out: She had a...
In 1929, Sullavan landed a role in the prestigious Harvard Dramatic Society’s production of Close Up. She made a huge impression in a scandalous way. One of her co-stars was future Hollywood hunk Henry Fonda, who she was supposed to slap in one of the scenes. Well, Margaret Sullavan did nothing by halves...and that wasn't always a good thing. Wikim...
Every time Sullavan had to slap Fonda's character, whether it was at a rehearsal or the real thing, she gave it her absolute all and delivered, as Fonda later recalled, "a rock-solid slap" to his chiseled moneymaker. Still, this beating had a strange effect on the young Fonda. Far from backing away from Sullavan, he ended up realizing, "She intrigu...
Fonda’s best friend was the sweetly awkward, yet wildly attractive, Jimmy Stewart. Naturally, Sullavan inserted herself into their merry group, and the trio became exceedingly close friends—so close that Stewart started to fall for the vivacious actress even as Fonda was, too. Finally, after plucking up the courage, Stewart decided to take the plun...
Sullavan described Stewart’s invitation for the date as “the longest, slowest, shyest but most sincere” proposal she ever received. But they were doomed to a frustrating end. Stewart had a reputation for being a player, and Sullavan turned him down. Still, as we'll see, their relationship always had the lingering sentiment of what if. But then Fond...
Dec 29, 2017 · Margaret Sullavan only made 16 motion pictures, in a brief career defined by a seeming indifference to movies. Because of her ongoing success on Broadway, she could afford to be choosey and refused to sign long-term contracts.

A petite brunette with large eyes dominating her small, attractively angular face, Margaret Sullavan made her stage debut with the University Players (which included James Stewart and Henry Fonda) in Falmouth, MA, and entered films in 1933. With her husky voice and unique, magnetic charm...
