This is so sad! No matter what people say about her chemistry with DVD on NDVD, I thought she was great on the show. I also enjoyed her in the movie "Peyton Place," where she plays Serena Cross, a young woman who is raped by her stepfather and then kills him. Hopefully, this is the last celebrity death of the year. RIP Hope:(
More recently, she appeared on the screen in "Blue Velvet" in 1986, and in the 1994 thriller "Clear and Present Danger," in which she played a senator.
