Margaret "Meg" Mundy is an English-American actress. She was born in London, but moved to the United States at the age of six in 1921.

Mundy is the daughter of the Australian opera singer Clytie Hine who studied at the Elder Conservatorium of Music in Adelaide, South Australia.

After retiring as a performer, Clytie Hine coached opera singers and musical performers. Meg Mundy's brother was the Columbia University history professor John Hine Mundy.

In 1948 she starred in The Respectful Prostitute, but Dorothy Parker professed ignorance: "Meg Mundy? What's that, a Welsh holiday?"

She played "Mona Aldrich Croft", on The Doctors from 1971 until 1982, when the show was cancelled.
