British teacher of voice and dramatic diction, a major figure in theatrical training.

Trained under Hermann Vezin and at the Paris Conservatoire, Fogerty in 1889 became a teacher of elocution at the Crystal Palace School of Art and Literature and later at Sir Frank Benson's London School of Acting. In 1906 she founded the Central School of Speech Training and Dramatic Art in London, which she directed until her death. Among her pupils were Sybil Thorndike, Peggy Ashcroft, John Gielgud, and Laurence Olivier. She adapted and produced a number of classical Greek plays to support her advocacy of the study and use of choral speaking and wrote several treatises, the best known of which is The Speaking of English Verse (1923). She also pioneered in speech therapy.
