RIP ANNE JEFFREYS 1923-2017

One of the loveliest actresses who starred in some of my favorite films has passed away.

Anne Jeffreys had a career that spanned from 1942 until 2013 which is a spectacular 71 years. Her career kicked off with several small roles in such films as "Tarzan's New York Adventure" and "The Flying Tigers" until she graduated to B westerns and finally to more well known films.

Some of her best work in my opinion was in such films as "Dillinger", "Zombies On Broadway", and "Genius At Work". I was first introduced to her in the classic films "Dick Tracy" and "Dick Tracy Vs. Cueball". In both films she portrayed Tracy's love interest, Tess Trueheart.

Of everything I have ever seen her in I think she was at her sexiest on "Zombies On Broadway". Jeffreys also starred in 83 episodes of "Topper", 7 episodes of "Falcon Crest", 23 episodes of "Finder of Lost Loves" and many, many more TV shows.

She had a very long and illustrious career. She passed away on Sept. 27th, 2017 at the age of 94.
