In 1940 she starred opposite Robert Donat in Shaw's Devils Disciple (Adelphi Theatre) and as a result went on to make three films with the actor Leslie Howard. In 1989 she spoke of her relationship with Howard: "He taught me everything I know about filmmaking.
I got on very well with him and luckily he didn't want to get into bed with me - as he did with quite a few people he worked with."In 1949 John was nominated to be the Actors Representative on the Working Party on Film Production Costs and for many years she was a leading figure with Equity, the British actors trade union.
Reflecting on her work with the union in 1990 she said: "I worked on several committees including one to establish minimum rates for chorus workers. After World War Two we fought a tough battle with the BBC which wanted to claim that all actors were self-employed and therefore the BBC need not pay their income tax or National Insurance - which would mean they couldn't claim unemployment benefit.
We had to fight to get actors paid for performances."John made several television appearances including a guest cameo in Crimes of Passion (1971).
