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.

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.
