Myra De Groot

Myra Tania De Groot (4 July 1937 – 4 April 1988) was a British-born theatre and television actress, and agent.

De Groot was born in Westminster, London, England,[1] and performed as a child, from everything from a magician's assistant to a dancer, eventually appearing in West End comedy.

She performed at the noted New York cabaret "Upstairs at The Downstairs" in Ben Bagley's last review (Seven Come Eleven) in 1962 with Hal Buckley, Nancy Preiser and Cy Young.

She left America and then resided in New Zealand between 1972–1980, where she appeared in many theatre roles and the 1978 film Angel Mine.

Her final role was in Neighbours as Eileen Clarke - a role in which De Groot appeared onscreen in the UK for fifteen months after she had died due to the fact the show aired significantly far behind the Australian airdate.
