Heather Wilde is an English actress who was active in stage and screen productions in both England and the United States between the late 1930s and 1950s.
Wilde is perhaps best known today for her performances as a supporting character in two popular, critically acclaimed American comedies: as the primping little actress Miss Plupp in The Bank Dick (1940) starring W. C. Fields and as the anxious housemaid Annie in Life with Father (1947) starring William Powell and Irene Dunne.
In its December 8, 1940 issue, The Philadelphia Inquirer carries a news item that provides some background information on Wilde:Heather Wilde, English actress, is making her American screen debut in "The Bank Dick" now at the Earle [Theatre].
Previously she had four years experience on the English stage and screen.
She was chosen for the current role because the character was supposed to be very diminutive.
