Biography
Mary Metaxa (Greek: Μαίρη Μεταξά) was a Greek actress. She was born in 1912 in Eastern Rumelia and died in Athens on January 10, 1987. Characteristic are the roles she played in Greek cinema as the Constantinopolitan - and most often overprotective - mother of Kostas Voutsas. In fact, Kostas Voutsas was the one who was close to Mary Metaxa when she passed away. She had a significant appearance in the film 20 Women and Me. Her first appearance in cinema was in 1958 in the film Our Lady the Midwife in the role of a desperate village mother who has brought her baby to be cared for by the midwife -Georgia Vassiliadou-. Her last appearance was in 1980 in the film Kotsos in the EEC in the role of Mrs. Evropaidou. She also appeared in the legendary TV series Our Neighborhood and once again in the role of Kostas Voutsas' mother in the series The Dreamer. In total, she acted in 40 films.
