One of my all-time-fave-folks who I interviewed, is the classy Anne Francis. You’ve seen her sexy puss, especially that signature beauty mark, through the years in many accomplished and memorable performances.
Some of Anne’s classic films are, Blackboard Jungle, So Young So Bad, Susan Slept Here, Bad Day at Black Rock, Funny Girl, and of course, what she is probably most remembered for, playing Altaira in Forbidden Planet. She’s been on countless TV programs, The Drew Carey Show, Without a Trace, Golden Girls [played a lesbian], Dr. Kildare, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, and one of my all time faves, she played Marsha, a department store mannequin on a Twilight Zone episode called, "The After Hours." In the 60s, she had her own TV show, Honey West, playing a detective.

Anne is well into her 70s and looks amazing. Her spunk, charm, wit, friendly and outgoing personality along with her positive attitude keep her vibrant and energetic. The woman simply radiates!
I'm WILD about the girl!

Hey mate,

I have to be a real renegade and say my favorite of all those films is Bad Day at Black Rock. Honestly, though, I'm not a crazed Spencer Tracy fan, but he happened to be in a lot of good movies!
Wonderful interview, by the way. You certainly do get around (and I do mean that in a good way)!
Thanks, Ken! Appreciate the feedback.

Hey Dann,
Thanks for your visit. I have been reading your blog and I like it, it has something of a lonely-rider-reporter air.
Curiously, I don't remember watching any of this lovely lady's movies. However, I do remember her (how to forget someone that HOT?).
Regards :)
Dann~
