(6,996 posts)1. Judy Tyler in Jailhouse Rock.
Judy Tyler was a young actress in NYC playing small parts on TV shows. She played Princess SummerFall WinterSpring on the Howdy Doody Show. This led to a part on Broadway in the play "Pipe Dream" which in turn brought an offer to go to Hollywood.
She was cast almost immediately opposite Elvis Presley in Jailhouse Rock. But soon after filming was complete Judy and her husband were killed in a terrible auto accident.
A very sad loss of a promising young actress.
