Marjie Millar

Marjie Millar (August 10, 1931-April 16, 1966), was an American television and film actress.

A blonde, she played a small number of second lead roles. She graduated in 1950 from Stadium High School in Tacoma, Washington, and then from Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri. She was married to director John Florea (1954-1957), to author John McCallum (sports writer) (1961-?) and to United States Navy officer Charles Candoo (?-death). She appeared in the television series Dragnet (in 1956) and The Millionaire.

In 1954-1955, Millar co-starred as Susan, an aspiring writer and the love interest of the Ray Bolger character "Raymond Wallace" in the ABC sitcom with a variety show theme, The Ray Bolger Show, previously known as Where's Raymond?. In separate episodes, Millar appeared opposite actor Craig Stevens and bodybuilder Steve Reeves.[1]

Millar's biggest role was as Dean Martin's love interest in the 1953 Martin and Lewis film Money from Home.

A 1957 auto accident on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles left her disabled and forced her to end her acting career. She divorced and moved back to Tacoma, where she operated a dance school. She died in San Diego, California, in 1966 as a result of complications after sixteen surgeries on her injured legs.
