Michael Wilding


Michael Wilding (1912-1979) was known for being one of Elizabeth Taylor's husbands (1952-1957) and for making a string of films, often co-starring Anna Neagle, under direction of her husband Herbert Wilcox. The most famous of these is Spring in Park Lane (1948). He also had a prominent role in In Which We Serve (1942). Moreover, he appeared in several television programmes but had a less successful Hollywood period. Tall and elegant, without forfeiting manliness, Wilding (especially when paired with Neagle), exemplified the dignity and grace of a former age.
