Trivia:
Katy, The Farmer's Daughter was played by Inger
Stevens. She committed suicide in 1970 by taking
barbiturates. It was revealed that Inger had been long
married (from 1961) to African-American bit actor Ike
Jones. The marriage, was kept under wraps to protect her
career. They were estranged at the time she died.
She cheated death three times. In her first suicide
attempt, she swallowed sleeping pills and ammonia which
left her with blood clots in her lungs, legs swelled up
to twice their size, and temporary blindness (she
miraculously recovered within weeks); one time she and
Rod Steiger were nearly asphyxiated by carbon monoxide
fumes while filming a scene from "Cry Terror"
in a tunnel; and once she leaped from a crash-landing
jet liner minutes before it exploded. |
