Ann Baker

Anna Rose Baker (July 23, 1930 – March 2, 2017) was an American actress, known for her appearance in classic films and television shows during the 1950s.

[1] Moving to California increased her opportunities for modeling, and by July 1954, her image had been seen on "100 or more magazine covers, billboards and the like".

Her television credits included Meet Corliss Archer (1954), playing the title character;[6] Crossroads (1955), as Gloria Vaughn; Queen for a Day (1956); Casey Jones (1957), as Jeannie; Man with a Camera (1959), playing Bunny Hansen; and The Millionaire (1959), as Shirley.

By 1957, Baker felt that she was "caught in a teen-age trap" caused by her youthful appearance.
