Perky American actress with a sexy style and a flair for comedy. Born in New Jersey, she was raised by her singer mother in New York, Michigan, and Oregon. She began acting as a child, in school and local productions. After college at North Texas State and the University of Idaho, she went to New York and landed work as a singer at the Radio City Music Hall and then as a performer in Broadway musicals. She went to Las Vegas as part of a comedy act and, there, she met Jack Emrek, who introduced her to film and television executives in Los Angeles. She made numerous appearances on television in both comic and dramatic roles and, by the 1960s, was a familiar and popular personality in movies. She specialized in spunky types of great humor, innocent sexiness. Although she was off the screen for much of the late 1970s, she reappeared in a few roles in the 1980s.
