Many online biographies exist of Magda Gabor but the FindaGrave.com obituary sums her life up best and reads:

Actress. Born in Budapest Hungary. Her career as a performer began before her sisters and she came to America with their mother Jolie. She appeared in two films in 1937. "Mai lányok" and "Lenke" also known as "Today's Girls." When the three sisters, Zsa Zsa, Eva, Magda and their mother were first in New York City they all set about forming the image of "professional celebrity" and paying for as little as possible themselves. The Nordstrom Sisters and others would remark on the toll charges from telephone calls made during their visits. Her roles in this country were mainly playing herself. These included the first episode of "The Colgate Comedy Hour" (1950), "V.I.P.-Schaukel" (1971), "The People vs. Zsa Zsa Gabor (1991). She married the actor George Sanders in 1970. He had earlier been one of Zsa Zsa's nine husbands (1942). She died of renal failure in Palm Springs, California.
