Shirley Knight

She’s still hanging in there, God bless her. She’s apparently frequently confused in the collective mind with Partridge mama Shirley Jones. Knight appeared in a couple of very high profile film roles in the late 50’s and early 60’s, and is yet another example of actors working out a career in both film and TV without having an enormous Q rating.
