Home of a 1950's Hollywood Starlet.
This young lady - and Miss America contestant - bought this home when she signed her contract in 1953 with Universal-International. She later worked at Warner Bros. and did independent films with Roger Corman. She made appearances on most of the popular television series of the late 50's and early 60's.
Her best friends in Hollywood were Raymond Burr and Nancy Kulp.
She was also a concert pianist.
You can scroll around on the current picture (I think) and see how it looks today.
In the late 1960's she retired to a beach home in San Clemente and died there at age 47.
If you know - you know. Who was she?

OK, here's another: this foreign-born child actress first appeared on US television at age 10/11 in 1955 and appeared on many TV shows (and some movies) such as 'Father Knows Best,' Leave it to Beaver' and 'Dobie Gillis.' I saw her yesterday on 'Wanted: Dead or Alive' starring Steve McQueen. Her last credit was in 1979 and she died in a traffic accident in 2010 at age 66.

R11 again. Guess nobody wants to play "Guess the Obscure Actress" game. It's Ahna Capri, born Anna Marie Nanasi in Hungary in 1944. She has 76 credits on IMDb, probably best known for a third-billed role in 'Enter the Dragon' (1973).

I don't remember her from Beaver or Father Knows Best.

Why did she die so young.

R19, Ahna Capri was billed under her birth name at the start of her career, Anna Marie Nanasi and on Beaver as Anna Capri.

Easy one:
which Hollywood actress has played the girlfriend or wife of Clark Gable, James Dean, and Jack Nicholson?
