Background
Eileen Patricia Augusta Fraser Morison was born in Manhattanon March 19, 1915, although some sources have erroneously given her year of birth as 1914. Her father William was a playwright and actor from Belfast while her mother, Selena Morison (née Fraser), worked for British Intelligence during World War I. After graduating from Washington Irving High School in New York, Morison studied at the Arts Students League while taking acting classes at the Neighborhood Playhouse. She also studied dan...
First stage appearances
In 1938, Morison appeared in the musical The Two Bouquets, which ran for only 55 performances. Among the other cast members was Alfred Drake, who, years later, would star opposite Morison in the Broadway hit Kiss Me, Kate.
Paramount contract player
While appearing in The Two Bouquets, Morison was noticed by talent scouts from Paramount Pictures, who were looking for exotic, dark-haired glamorous types similar to Dorothy Lamour, one of their star commodities. Morison subsequently signed a contract with Paramount. She made her feature film debut in the "B" film Persons in Hiding (1939). Also in 1939, Paramount considered her for the role of Isobel in their adventure film Beau Geste, starring Gary Cooper and Ray Milland, but the role inste...
USO tour
By 1942, the United States had become involved in World War II and, as a result, Morison became one of many celebrities who entertained American troops and their allies. In November of that year she joined Al Jolson, Merle Oberon, Allen Jenkins, and Frank McHugh on a USOTour in Great Britain.
Return to film
Morison returned to acting in the cinema as a freelance performer. One of her better roles—albeit a small supporting one—was that of Empress Eugénie in The Song of Bernadette (1943) starring Jennifer Jones. She appeared in The Fallen Sparrow (1943) with John Garfield and Maureen O'Hara, and Calling Dr. Death (1945), one of the "Inner Sanctum" films, starring Lon Chaney Jr.
Kiss Me, Kate
In 1948, Morison again abandoned her film career and returned to the stage, and achieved her greatest success. Cole Porter had heard her sing while in Hollywood and decided that she had the vocal expertise and feistiness to play the female lead in his new show, Kiss Me, Kate. Morison went on to major Broadway stardom when she created the role of Lilli Vanessi, the imperious stage diva whose own volatile personality coincided with that of her onstage role (Kate from The Taming of the Shrew). K...
The King and I
In February 1954, Morison took over the role of Anna Leonowens in the Rodgers and Hammerstein production of The King and I, which co-starred Yul Brynner in his star-making role as the King of Siam. The musical premiered in 1951, originally with Gertrude Lawrence as Leonowens. Lawrence was subsequently replaced by Celeste Holm, Constance Carpenter, Annamary Dickey, and finally Morison, who appeared in The King and I until its Broadway closing on March 20, 1954, and then continued with the prod...
Television appearances
During the 1950s and 1960s, Morison made several appearances on television, including several variety shows. Among these were a production of Rio Rita on Robert Montgomery Presents (1950) and a segment from The King and I on a 1955 broadcast of The Toast of the Town starring Ed Sullivan. She also appeared in 1952 on the Christmas Party episode of the Honeymooners segment of Jackie Gleason’s show playing herself as Trixie Norton’s former Vaudevillian friend. Morison also appeared in General Fo...
Character roles
Among her non-musical television performances were a recurring role on the detective series The Cases of Eddie Drake (1952) co-starring Don Haggerty on the DuMont Television Network and a guest appearance with Vincent Price on Have Gun – Will Travel (1958) starring Richard Boone. Years later she appeared in the made-for-TV movie Mirrors (1985) and a guest role in 1989 on the popular sitcom Cheers. She was also featured in the documentary If You're Not In the Obit, Eat Breakfast, a television...
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Morison performed on stage numerous times—largely in stock and touring productions. These included both musical and dramatic plays, among them Milk and Honey, Kismet, The Merry Widow, Song of Norway, Do I Hear a Waltz?, Bell, Book and Candle, The Fourposter, Separate Tables, and Private Lives. She performed in still ...
In later years Morison devoted herself to painting—one of her early passions—and had several showings in and around Los Angeles. Never married and childless, she lived in the Park La Breaapartment complex in Los Angeles from 1961 onwards. In December 2012, at age 97, she appeared on stage in an evening entitled Ladies of an Indeterminate Age at the...
