It was my idea to 'frost' the streak in the front. I was searching for a different look. Either be blonde or brunette. But don't be brunette in the back and blonde in the front.

Lois and I worked together in 'Ladies Courageous' ten years earlier. We were roommates on our location shooting. I had a blind date and when Lois and I were going up the elevator with some servicemen, she pointed to a very handsome guy and said, 'I'll bet that's him.' And it was! We've been married over 50 years now! I used to see Lois every week at church but lost touch after we moved south.

Universal was like a family. When I was having a terrible time during my pregnancy, they came to my home and built sets right in my bedroom so I could finish the few scenes I had left in 'That's the Spirit'. But Columbia—that was work! I did a lot of crime pictures and another horror called 'The Creeper'. When it was time for those cats to be all over my dead body, I yelled for a stand in. I couldn't stand having dozens of cats walking all over me. It gave me the shivers!

Off screen, I was friends with people I was nasty to in pictures. Judy Canova and I were friends. There's a terrific line in 'WAC From Walla Walla' where she's trying to pick out a shade of lipstick. I walk by and say 'window shade.' [Laughs] Judy played the star bit to the hilt! She had an entourage that followed her around. One woman held an umbrella over Judy's head to keep the sun off her.

In most of my westerns, in fact most of the movies I did at Columbia, I was the meanie, the bitch. Like 'Colorado Sundown' (at Republic) with Rex Allen and even the musical, 'Arkansas Swing' with the Hoosier Hot Shots, a terrific quartet who were also in 'Song of Idaho'.

I never did a western while at Universal. I did a variety of roles, including 'The Climax' with Boris Karloff. There is a huge painting of me in the film. When it was over, Ernest Pagano, one of the producers, put it up in his office. It took up most of the wall! I wasn't happy because people thought we were having an affair—which I never have and never would do.

I was a model—someone saw my picture—and I landed a stock contract at Universal. Because of my experience, I received a higher salary than the other girls starting out—and during my first week in Hollywood, I got to meet and have dinner with Greta Garbo!

I didn't like what I was seeing, so I decided that was it. I never thought I was a good actress in pictures—but later I became an actress on TV. I kept every W2 for every show or film I did. I had them in a huge box which I took to SAG, dropped on their desk and asked for my pension!

Producer Gail Patrick used me so much as a villain I finally told her, 'They'll know it's me the moment I show up!'

Don't waste time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long and, in the end, it's only with yourself.
