Margot Kidder's Quotes

  • I suppose that if you want to be famous and suddenly it happens and you don't like it, it's nobody's fault but your own.
  • Nudity in the flesh doesn't bother me. But having my mind uncovered - that scares the hell out of me.
  • God, [George W. Bush] makes me want to slash my wrists. He's so embarrassing I have to leave the room when he's on the news. What a monkey.
  • Acting's fun, but life's more important.
  • My grandson sees me as Lois on TV every Christmas, and that scores me points.

Interesting Facts about Margot Kidder

  1. Was in a serious car crash in 1990 and couldn't work for two years. She went bankrupt.
  2. Had one daughter, Maggie McGuane (b. October 28, 1975), with her ex-first husband Thomas McGuane.
  3. Found by police in a distressed state, hiding in someone's garden claiming she'd been stalked and attacked. Had apparently cut her hair off with a razor blade. Placed in psychiatric care. Police said there was nothing to support her story. [April 1996]
  4. Best known as Superman's favorite person, Lois Lane. Her much publicized behavior in 1996 was due to manic depression. She was living in a state of paranoia, convinced that her first husband was trying to kill her. Kidder was at one point homeless. She narrowly escaped being raped, and wandered about the streets of Los Angeles (barely recognizable after cutting her hair off and removing some of her dental work) before hiding underneath a family's porch that was located near the studio where Superman (1978) was filmed. Fortunately, she got her life back on track after having faced the "demons" of her condition.
  5. On Aug 25, 2002, she suffered a broken pelvis near Belfast, Maine, when her GMC Yukon hit a raised pavement and rolled over several times. She had just come from hosting the 15-Minute Festival, a series of original plays staged at the National Theatre Workshop of the Handicapped. She was on her way to Montreal at the time of the accident. Kidder's friend, David Stuckey, said that the actress won't require surgery but will remain for several days at Waldo County General Hospital in Belfast. Stuckey said Kidder was in a lot of pain. "But she's in good spirits," he said. "She's OK."
  6. Aunt of actress Janet Kidder. They both appeared in the same episode (Nikita: Walk on By (1999)) as Nikita's mother Roberta, young and old, on the TV series, Nikita (1997).
  7. Her father was from New Mexico, and her mother was from British Columbia. She was of English, Welsh, Northern Irish, Irish, and Scottish descent. Several of her family lines lead back to New England of the 1600s.
  8. Along with Christopher Reeve, Jackie Cooper, and Marc McClure, she is one of only four actors to appear in the first four Superman films: Superman (1978), Superman II (1980), Superman III (1983), and Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987).
  9. Went to 11 schools in 12 years.
  10. Shared a beach house in California with actress Jennifer Salt in the 1970s.
  11. Although born in Yellowknife, the road that is named Lois Lane in Yellowknife is actually named after a long time Yellowknife resident Lois Little and not after her character in the movies.
  12. After living in the US for 34 years, she became a US citizen in August of 2004 so she could vote against US President George W. Bush as part of her protest against the war in Iraq.
  13. Actively supported Jesse Jackson's presidential campaign in 1984.
  14. In the Banacek (1972) episode, Banacek: A Million the Hard Way (1972), when Banacek (George Peppard) introduces himself and she replies, "Banacek, just one name? Like Superman?" That was six years before her first appearance as Lois Lane.
  15. The second of five children; her siblings include elder brother, BC Green Party co-founder, John Kidder and younger sister, actress turned education activist, Annie Kidder.
  16. Supported Bernie Sanders in the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election.
  17. She was an active volunteer of the Stafford Animal Shelter while residing in Livingston, Montana.
  18. She was an outspoken supporter of liberal causes, both in the United States and her native Canada.
  19. Was a close friend of Carrie Fisher. After Fisher's death in December 2016, she was very aware of her mortality. She lost another close friend in early May 2018 and died herself a week later, on May 13, 2018, in her sleep at her home in Livingston, Montana. Margot was 69. On August 8, 2018, it was reported that Kidder's death had been ruled a suicide by overdose. The Park County, Montana, coroner said her death was "a result of a self-inflicted drug and alcohol overdose".
  20. She stated in her final wish that her remains would be devoured by a pack of wolves, but her ex-husband Thomas McGuane and their daughter Maggie had her remains cremated instead. Margot's older brother John Kidder returned her ashes to Yellowknife, Northwest Territories one year later. Some of them were also sprinkled in Labrador City, Newfoundland and Labrador.
