About the Author
About the author ... MARGARET KERRY It’s fun to be Tinker Bell’s alter ego ... especially when I explain to an audience that I am the actress, dancer and pantomimist who was the animator’s model for Tink. I performed all of her scenes before the cameras at Disney Studios! She has affected my life. I often dream about throwing caution to the wind ~ doing just what I want to do just when I want to do it ... however, my actual basic personality is more like the comforting and caring Wendy, “mother” for the Lost Boys and Peter Pan. Working in the entertainment industry without interruption since 1934, I’ve had a head start on becoming a performer and as a Scots-Irish lass .... a story teller (in the nicest sense, of course). SOME Personal HIGH LIGHTS I was adopted when I was four and went to work at Warner Brothers ~ continued as a child actress in films ~ my younger days found me appearing in films at RKO. MGM and performing on a new thing called television at ABC and KTLA ~ on to Disney Studio as Tinker Bell and the Red Headed Mermaid in Neverland’s Lagoon ~ In my middle years, I found my four brothers then the rest of my family ~ I did hundreds of voice-overs for TV cartoons and produced animation. In the last three decades, I’ve worked on radio for twelve years ~ lost my first husband after thirty-three rather rocky years ~ raised three (wonderful) kids ~ lost my second husband after twelve and a half fabulous years and I’m still going strong traveling and performing all over the United States. Oh, yes, a warning to those who are anxious to read about my deviant behavior. I’ve never had as much as a traffic ticket for a moving violation. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed, though. My life has been “a romp,”
