Lois Nettleton (1927 - 2008) was a lovely and gifted actress and is perhaps best known for her film work in the 1960s and 70s, and later enjoyed a long career as a character actress in television and in film.

In 1955 she was Barbara Bel Geddes's understudy in the role of Maggie in the original Broadway production of Tennessee WilliamsÕs Pulitzer-Prize winning play "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof," staged and directed by the great Elia Kazan, during which time she was able to appear on stage several times.
