The Late, Great Linda Cherney

I was just wondering, how many people out there realise that the young woman playing hostess/dancer 'Ketti' is none other than Linda Cherney--a.k.a. beatnik legend Linda Lovely?

Linda Lovely and her roommates Patsy and Skippy were the poster girls for the beat generation in North Beach in the 1950s and early '60s. Besides her silent acting in this and one other film, Ms Lovely was also a dancer, poet and painter. (She told a CBC interviewer during this period that she considered herself primarily a painter.) She is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful females of her generation. She was also a genius by some accounts. Sadly, according to sources, she passed away a few years back.

If anyone has more in-depth information on Linda Lovely/Cherney, please share it with us.
