Celeste Yarnall

When her acting career diminished, Miss Yarnall began to work in real estate. Despite warnings about limited opportunities for success, she earned a six-figure income in her first year with a real estate firm. By 1982, she owned Celeste Yarnall & Associates, which a syndicated columnist described as "one of L.A.'s top office real estate firms".
In 1988, Miss Yarnall achieved a doctorate in nutrition, following she was a nutrition lecturer at Pacific Western University. She also became a breeder of Tonkinese cats and wrote two books: "Nautral Dog Care: A Complete Guide to Holistic Care for Dogs" and "Natural Cat Care: A Complete Guide to Holistic Care for Cats".
In 1964, at age 19, Miss Yarnall was voted "Miss Rheingold", the winner of an annual beauty contest voted on by buyers of New York-based Rheingold beer. She was the last elected winner of a contest that had been run since 1942, and represented Rheingold at its pavilion at the 1964 World's Fair.
She had one daughter: Camilla Yarnall (born 1970).
Best remembered by the public (and by many sci-fi fans) for her role as Yeoman Martha Landon in the Star Trek (1966) second season episode The Apple (1967).

[on Elvis Presley] I adored Elvis. When I met him for the first time, he immediately put me at ease. We had to film our kissing first [for Live a Little, Love a Little (1968)] and neither of us heard the director say, "Cut!" For me, it was love at first kiss! We became very good friends. He was warm and kind and full of love. He had this tremendous desire to please people. We watched the funeral of Martin Luther King Jr. together over lunch in his trailer. He cried. He really cared deeply. He was far more handsome in person with his deep blue eyes and a Roman profile. He held jam sessions on the set and would play cars with George Barris or play football with the "boys" who traveled with him everywhere. He was truly "The King".
