Recalling the Blacklist era: "To sit out the McCarthy era in a house on Rodeo Drive as Mrs. Gene Kelly is not so bad. But the atmosphere that prevailed eventually destroyed my marriage. My ideas ran against the political currents of the time. By 1957 we were divorced." See more »Trivia:
Lived with actor and director Roger Pigaut in Paris (her favorite city) in between her marriages to Gene Kelly in the U.S. and director Karel Reisz in England. See more »Star Sign:
