Mary Margaret (Peggy) Cass (May 21, 1924 - March 8, 1999) was an actress and comedienne.
She was best known for her performance as Agnes Gooch in Auntie Mame on both Broadway and in the film version (1958), a role for which she received an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
She was also a regular panelist on the television game show "To Tell the Truth".
She died of heart failure in New York City in 1999 at the age of 74 at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, which may indicate that she was receiving treatment for cancer at the time of her death. She is survived by her widower, Eugene Feeney. They had no children.
