Born Katena Ktenavea in the Hell's Kitchen (now Clinton) neighborhood of midtown Manhattan, the future film and TV actress grew up in Los Angeles and began her acting career on the stage and in radio in the late 1940s. She made her film debut in the campy sci-fi adventure film Les Créatures du docteur Aranya (1953). Five years later, she starred as the imperious Dr. Myra in director Jerry Warren's film Teenage Zombies (1959), which led to a series of roles in Warren's impoverished film productions. Always busy outside of acting (in modeling, real estate and in various jobs in the animated cartoon business), Victor felt that the stigma of being a regular in
Warren's films stymied her mainstream acting career.
