This is the complete filmography of actress Marguerite Chapman (March 9, 1918 – August 31, 1999).
Born in Chatham, New York, she had humble beginnings as a typist and switchboard operator in White Plains, New York, until her beauty was brought to the attention of the John Powers Modeling Agency in New York City, where she went on to become a high-demand pictorial and magazine model.
Relocating to Los Angeles, California, in December 1939, she would appear in several westerns, musicals, comedies, and dramas within the next two decades, working with such major studios as 20th Century Fox, Warner Bros., Republic Pictures, and Columbia. She later became a household name through television, appearing on several well-known sitcoms of the day throughout the 1950s up until her retirement in 1977.
