Julie London (Actor) .. Nurse Dixie McCall

Born: September 26, 1926
Died: October 18, 2000

Trivia: Sultry blues vocalist Julie London began her film career long before she achieved fame as a recording artist. In 1945, 18-year-old London was selected to play a bargain-basement jungle princess, appearing opposite a gorilla in the PRC cheapie Nabonga. She was pretty bad, but no worse than the film itself. By the time she was cast as a sexy teenager in The Red House (1947), her acting had improved immensely, and by the time she played the female lead in the 1951 programmer The Fat Man, it looked as though she actually had a future in films. Still, London's greatest claim to fame was her long string of hit records ("Cry Me a River" et. al.) of the 1950s; many male admirers bought her albums simply to gaze upon her come-hither countenance on the dust jacket. Her status as every red-blooded American boy's wish dream was gently lampooned in Frank Tashlin's The Girl Can't Help It (1956), in which she appears as a spectral vision who transfixes a wistful Tom Ewell. Her best dramatic film appearances of this period include her leading-lady gigs in Voice in the Mirror (1958) and Man of the West (1958). From 1945 through 1955, Julie London was the wife of actor/producer Jack Webb; years after the divorce, London played Nurse Dixie McCall on the popular Jack Webb-produced TV series Emergency, in which she co-starred with her second husband, actor/jazz musician Bobby Troup.

Trivia: Over her long career, Lillian Bronson played numerous small character roles in a wide variety of films. The New York City native made her screen debut in The Happy Land (1943) starring Don Ameche. After many film appearances, she branched out into television, working as a regular on shows like Kings Row, where she played Grandma from 1955 to 1956, and Date With the Angels between 1957 and 1958. Bronson also guest starred on numerous television shows, especially Westerns like The Rifleman, Have Gun Will Travel, and The Guns of Will Sonnett.

Aneta Corsaut (Actor) .. Helena Hartley

Died: November 06, 1995

Trivia: Actress Aneta Corseaut made her feature film debut appearing opposite young Steve McQueen and an oozy pile of goo in The Blob (1958). She subsequently played occasional leads and supporting roles in feature films and television. Fans of the nostalgic sitcom The Andy Griffith Show will recognize her as school teacher Helen Crump, longtime girlfriend of Mayberry sheriff Andy Taylor (Griffith). Other television roles include that of Nurse Bradley on House Calls during the late '70s and early '80s. Corseaut's additional film credits include Bad Ronald (1974) and The Toolbox Murders (1978).
