Peggie Castle(1927-1973)
- Actress
- Soundtrack
Tall, sultry, green-eyed blonde Peggie Castle was actually spotted by a
talent scout while she was lunching in a Beverly Hills restaurant. In
her films she was usually somebody's "woman" rather than a girlfriend,
and her career was confined to mostly "B"-grade action pictures, dramas
or westerns: Harem Girl (1952),
Lännen karavaani (1952),
Prinssi joka oli varas (1951),
Jesse James' Women (1954),
among others. She did, however, have good roles in such films as
Maksa elämäni (1951) with
Bette Davis,
99 River Street (1953) with
John Payne,
Minä olen tuomari (1953),
The White Orchid (1954),
He kohtasivat sateessa (1956)
with Jane Wyman and in
Rooman seitsemän kukkulaa (1957) with
Mario Lanza. After three seasons
playing sexy femme lead Lily Merrill, the dance-hall hostess and
romantic interest for steely-eyed Marshal Dan Troop in the TV western
series Lawman (1958), she left show
business in 1962. She later developed an alcohol problem and died of
cirrhosis of the liver in 1973 at age 45.
