Jana Bellan was an attractive and appealing brunette actress who only appeared in a handful of movies and TV shows during her regrettably short-lived career in the 1970s. She was memorable as fetching carhop "Budda" in her film debut in American Graffiti (1973), and delightful as the sassy and spirited Mary Lou in the amusing drive-in redneck comedy romp Sixpack Annie (1975). Bellan was impressive as the luckless compulsive gambler Terry in Al Adamson's Black Heat (1976). She made guest appearances on episodes of "The F.B.I.", "Cannon", "Starsky and Hutch", "Serpico", and "Barnaby Jones". After appearing in the obscure feature film, Kings of the Hill (1978), Bellan quit show business. She is now a member of Lynn Rd, a contemporary Christian group out of St. Paschal Baylon Church in Thousand Oaks, California. The group consists of Bellan, Kevin Stoller, Jody Bruno, and Georgina Cebrero.
