#Quote
1[about ex-husband Leonard Burns] Leonard ended all our arguments with the statement, "You are not worthy of me". I began to think that I was some kind of an inferior being.
2[after marrying actor Tom Howland in Las Vegas] Tom is a Chicago actor now in Hollywood. We met about six weeks ago and fell very much in love, so we just went and got married. We hope to do a play together.
3I always knew I wanted to try for a career in pictures, so I studied drama and worked in little theaters. But I was impatient for a talent scout to discover me. When I was 16 I bleached my hair as a bid for attention. I didn't know how to go about this and made many mistakes. Instead of taking weeks, I applied peroxide and ammonia three times in seven days and my hair got just like straw. My scalp had sore places all over. Even the color was horrid - an artificial orange that was unbecoming. It is interesting to me how much hair influences your personality. Men expect a blonde to be more frivolous and less intelligent.
#Fact
1Best remembered for her role as Honey Parker in the cult classic Attack of the 50 Foot Woman (1958).
2Her dead body was discovered in her home by neighbor Susan Savage in April 2011. Its condition suggested that she had been dead for close to a year.
3Her father Charles Vedder was a jazz saxophonist.
4Interviewed in the book "Invasion of the B-Girls" by Jewel Shepard.
5Stephen King, in his book "Stephen King: On Writing", cited her as one of his movie matinée idols.
6Once up for a lead role in Lana Turner's Imitation of Life (1959).
7Divorced twice, she had an on-and-off 15-year relationship with the late actor Jim Hutton, the father of Timothy Hutton.
8Her musician/song-writing parents recorded quite a few 45-RPM records in the 1950s and 1960s. Their group was billed as The Chuck Vedder Trio, and they put out primarily rock-and-roll and jazz instrumentals. Yvette, a singer on the side, released a jazz CD in the 1990s called "Tribute to Charlie and Maria" that showcased some of her parents' songs. Both parents passed away in the 1990s.
