She was quite the hottie in 1956, though. :icon_smile_tongue:

Sad to say I thought she was gone years ago....still how many people are remembered for a tv show they did 40+ years ago?

Plus she was HOT in her youth.

Another 60's tv icon leaves us...On the adolescent hot meter: just above Shirley (Partridge) Jones and just below Yvonne (Batgirl) Craig..

She was even then a bit past her prime to compete with the likes of Marta (Judy Robinson) Kristen and the girl who played Wrangler Jane on F Troop but definately held her own with Mortica Adams and June Lockhart IMO...

She gave alot of us hours of fun in prime time and in reruns....

Thanks for the quick reply.  I did an internet search and found out he is still alive.  I know I'm stupid, but the local news said that Yvonne was the last cast member alive...
