Lyn Thomas(1929-2004)
- Actress
Indiana-born, Lyn Thomas acted on stage before she came to Hollywood in
the late 40s, working under contract to Eagle Lion, Hal Wallis
Productions and 20th Century-Fox and yet never catching the proverbial
brass ring. Throughout the 1950s, she appeared in many B movies and TV
series (including The Abbott and Costello Show, Adventure s of
Superman, The Millionaire, Dragnet and General Electric Theatre); she
also frequently appeared on TV commercials and billboards. In 1960,
Thomas made her final screen appearance and then (in her words) "got
married, married, married." Now (1999) living at a California golf club
with her husband of 21 years ("That's a record"), the happily retired
Thomas has become a popular guest at Western cons.
