Beverly Washburn(I)

Washburn said that, as a child actress, her favorite adult female co-star was Loretta Young. She appeared in four (4) episodes of Letter to Loretta (1953) (between 1954-56) and in 24 episodes of The New Loretta Young Show (1962) (between 1962-63). Washburn and Young became friends despite 30 years of age difference. Washburn's favorite male co-star was Jack Benny and she spoke of his generosity, despite the comic media portrayals of him as a tightwad. She appeared on The Jack Benny Program (1950) twice between 1952-54.

[her memories of working on L'Homme des vallées perdues (1953)] The movie was shot on location in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Alan Ladd and I both went up the chair lift to the top of a mountain. I went down the lift by myself, but Ladd was too scared to come down! Finally, they sent a helicopter to rescue him; he was too chicken to go down. The cast and crew never let him hear the end of it!
