In 1937 she made the first of five appearances as Phyllis Clavering in the popular Bulldog Drummond series.[10] She was cast as Kitty Bennett in Pride and Prejudice (1940) and as the maid, Ethel, in Suspicion (1941).

She was one of the passengers of Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat (1944).[10] Her film appearances in the following years were few, but she returned to Hollywood to provide voices for the Walt Disney animated films Alice in Wonderland (1951) and Peter Pan (1953). From 1964 until 1965, she played a continuing role in the television soap opera Peyton Place.[10] After that role, she played Miss Faversham, a nanny and female friend of Sebastian Cabot's character of Giles French in the situation comedy Family Affair.[11] Personal lifeAngel married actor Ralph Forbes in Arizona in 1934, a union that lasted less than ten years.

Though they remained lifelong friends, they never married. Heather and her husband were both present at the wedding of Wilcoxon to his first wife. They had intended to host the wedding at their house in Coldwater Canyon.[12] Angel married Robert B. Sinclair (1905–1970), a film and television director, in 1944.
