Description by OLDIES.com:

This first-ever biography of American actress Anne Francis will enlighten her casual fans and earn a nod of agreement from her diehard admirers. The star of such 1950s cinematic classics as Bad Day at Black Rock, Blackboard Jungle and Forbidden Planet, Anne made the risky decision to transplant her talents to television--and as a result, her acting has often been taken for granted. But TV supplied her with the groundbreaking title role in "Honey West" (1965-66), where she became the first leading actress to portray a private detective on a regular weekly series.

All of Anne Francis? film and television appearances are chronicled, including a full episode guide for "Honey West" and a complete listing of her guest roles on such series as "The Twilight Zone", "The Untouchables" and "Murder, She Wrote".
