Biography
Melbourne’s winter light broke on 2 July 1887, the day Madge Titheradge first drew breath, and from that moment the stage seemed to tilt in her direction. By 1916 she had stepped before the camera as the wily heroine of *A Fair Impostor*, followed swiftly by the patriotic rally of *God Bless Our Red, White and Blue* (1918) and the emotional tug-of-war in *David and Jonathan* (1920). Between curtain-calls and close-ups she collected two surnames—first Charles Quatermaine, later Edgar Park—yet the spotlight never drifted far from her own name. Six decades after her southern-hemisphere debut, she closed the final act on 14 November 1961 in Fetcham, Surrey, leaving the boards quieter but forever stamped with her unmistakable fire.
