Scott, Martha (1914–2003), actress. She will always be remembered as the original Emily Webb in
Our Town (1938), a role with which she made her Broadway and Hollywood debuts. Scott was born in Jamesport, Missouri, and educated at the University of Michigan before going into stock. She never received the chance to originate another great role like Emily, usually acting in short‐lived plays or replacing others in long‐run hits. But she later developed into a fine character actress. Her last Broadway appearance was as the saintly old Rebecca Nurse in the 1991 revival of
The Crucible.
