Mina Cunard (born Armina Jeffries; sometimes credited Margaret Mayburn; December 16, 1894—August 9, 1978) was an American actress who performed in small roles in American films between the 1910s and the 1950s.[1][2][3] She was the younger sister of popular actress Grace Cunard.[4][5][6]
Biography
Cunard was born in Columbus, Ohio, to Washington Jeffries and Lola Longshore. She had a half-brother named Quincy from her mother's first marriage as well as a sister named Grace. After Grace entered the film industry, Mina followed suit; the pair often worked together, although Grace became a more well-known actress.[7]
She more or less disappeared from the silver screen by the beginning of the 1920s, instead appearing on stage with her husband, actor/radio announcer Harry Seymour, with whom she had one child. She returned to acting in motion pictures in the 1940s.[8]
