Arlene Carol Dahl
(August 11, 1925 – November 29, 2021)

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Arlene Dahl, the actor whose charm
and striking red hair shone in such Technicolor movies of
the 1950s as “Journey to the Center of the Earth" and
“Three Little Words,” has died.

Dahl’s son, actor Lorenzo Lamas, said in posts on Facebook
and Instagram that she died Monday morning in New York.
No cause of death was given.

Dahl was one of the last surviving stars from the Classical
Hollywood cinema era.

committee.

On October 20, 1947, the notorious Red Scare kicked into high gear
in Washington, as a Congressional committee begins investigating
Communist influence in one of the world’s richest and most
glamorous communities: Hollywood.

After World War II, the Cold War began to heat up between the
world’s two superpowers—the United States and the communist-
controlled Soviet Union. In Washington, conservative watchdogs
worked to out communists in government before setting their
sights on alleged “Reds” in the famously liberal movie industry.

In its investigation, the House Un-American Activities Committee
grilled a number of prominent witnesses, asking bluntly “Are you
or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party?” Some
witnesses—including director Elia Kazan, actors Gary Cooper and
Robert Taylor and studio honchos Walt Disney and Jack Warner—
gave the committee names of colleagues they suspected of being
communists.

A small group known as the “Hollywood Ten” (below) resisted,
complaining that the hearings were illegal and violated their
First Amendment rights. They were all convicted of obstructing
the investigation and served jail terms.

Annie Oakley is a Western television series that fictionalizes the life
of the famous Annie Oakley. (Except for depicting the protagonist
as a phenomenal sharpshooter of the period, the program entirely
ignores the facts of the historical Oakley’s life.) Featuring actress
Gail Davis in the title role, the weekly program ran from January
1954 to February 1957 in syndication. A total of 81 black-and-white
episodes were produced, with each installment running 25 minutes
in length. ABC aired daytime reruns of the series on Saturdays and
Sundays from 1959 to 1960 and then again from 1964 to 1965.
