She was Miss Reno and Miss Nevada before going to Hollywood. Her family had several businesses here. Wells Avenue is named after her uncle. For a couple of years in the mid 1960s, right about the time Gilligan's Island had its first TV run, a young Tom Hanks lived in a duplex on Mill Street a couple of doors down from Wells Avenue while his father was a casino cook. I have talked to her surviving relatives. A couple of them. They hate her.
