Born and raised in Chicago, Meacham left to study drama at Yale University and the Neighborhood Playhouse, New York.[1][2] She debuted on Broadway as Ensign Jane Hilton in the 1952 The Long Watch,[3] for which she received a Clarence Derwent Award, a prize for newcomers to the New York stage.[1]
She appeared in many on- and off-Broadway productions, often adaptations of plays written by Tennessee Williams, such as Suddenly Last Summer, The Gnädiges Fräulein and In the Bar of a Tokyo Hotel.[1] For her interpretation of the role of Catherine Holly in Suddenly Last Summer (played by Elizabeth Taylor in the film version), she received an Obie Award as Best Actress.[1][4]
Other Broadway appearances included Jean Giraudoux's Ondine, Eugenia, an adaptation of Henry James's The Europeans, The Crucible and The Seagull.[1][3] She received a second Obie award for her performance in Hedda Gabler in 1961.[1][5] Her last Broadway appearance was as Gertrude in Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead in 1968.[1]
Meacham made many TV appearances since the 1950s and made her film debut in Robert Rossen's 1964 Lilith.[1] She was a long-lasting cast member of the TV series Another World.[6]
She died from undisclosed causes in Canaan, New York, on January 12, 2006, aged 80. Her death was reported by her friend, actress Marian Seldes.[1]
