Happy Birthday to the late Carol Lynley! I became a fan of hers in May of 1973 when I saw her in The Poseidon Adventure at the Westbury Drive-In for my 12th birthday. I then began scouring the TV Guide to catch her in anything from her older films on The 4:30 Movie to guest spots on episodic TV to made-for-TV movies to her appearances on game and talk shows. I also began compiling a scrapbook with clippings of her from newspapers and magazines. Never in a million years would I have thought this would lead me to interviewing her years later for an article for Filmfax magazine in the 1990s to two books Dueling Harlows from McFarland & Company, Inc., Publishers and a career retrospective, Carol Lynley: Her Film & TV Career in Thrillers, Fantasy and Suspense from BearManor Media.

I have seen practically every photo of Carol Lynley ever published or released. Here are two of my favorites from The Shuttered Room and Harlow. ... See MoreSee Less

Stunning photo (from The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts) of Pamela Tiffin on stage in a 1969 production of Uncle Vanya at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles.
