Ms Wyatt began her long acting career, appearing in such films like 1934 version of Great Expectations, playing Sondra in Lost Horizon, and in the classic Elia Kazan drama Gentleman's Agreement from 1947.
Wyatt had the most success on television, playing memorable Mom Margaret Anderson on Father Knows Best (1954-1960). She also made guest appearances on countless other TV series. The one that will always be with me though is her role as Amanda (Spock's Mother) on the original Star Trek series 2nd season episode Journey to Babel. She would return to Trek for a welcomed cameo in the feature film Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home in 1986. Quite a "Lady Jane"--She will never be forgotten but surely missed
