ANNE FRANCIS LIFE & CAREER SC (C: 0-1-2)

Description

"(W) Laura Wagner This first-ever biography of American actress Anne Francis will enlighten her casual fans and earn a nod of agreement from her diehard admirers. The star of such 1950s cinematic classics as Forbidden Planet, Anne made the risky decision to transplant her talents to television and, as a result, her acting has often been taken for granted. But television supplied her with the groundbreaking title role in Honey West (1965-66), where she became the first leading actress to portray a private detective on a regular weekly series."
