Life and career

Reid was born on 4 November 1930 in London, England, the daughter of Canadian parents Walter Clarke Reid, a retired colonel of the Bengal Lancers in the Indian Army, and Helen Isabel, née Moore.[3] While Reid was young, she and her family emigrated to Oakville, Ontario.[1]

She attended Havergal College in Toronto and university in London, and then studied acting at a performance art school in Canada.[4] She had a long and varied career on film, television, and stage in Canada and the United States. Her stage roles included Lady Macbeth in Macbeth, Katharina in The Taming of the Shrew, Henny in Bosoms and Neglect, and Martha in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

She also played Ray Krebbs' aunt Lil Trotter on Dallas in the early 1980s, as well as appearing in episodes of Scarecrow and Mrs. King and Columbo.
