Carolyn Jones

She was buried in Melrose Abbey Memorial Park Cemetery, Anaheim, California. With the decline of her film career, Lavi began a successful schlager singing career in Germany, with hits such as "Oh, wann kommst du?" and "Willst du mit mir geh'n?". Chemotherapy did little to slow the course of the disease and she died the following year in West Hollywood, California. However, her most famous role is probably as 'The Detainer/007' in Casino Royale (1967) opposite Woody Allen. While appearing in the television series Capitol in 1982, she was diagnosed with colon cancer and she played many of her scenes in a wheelchair. Lavi's film appearances include Mario Bava's gothic classic La Frusta e il corpo (1963), and the first Matt Helm movie The Silencers (1966). Her acting career began to decline after the demise of "The Addams Family" in 1966, and while she continued to act, her roles were sporadic. Returning to Israel, her career took off properly in 1960, when she started appearing in a large number of European and American productions. Conversant in several langauges, she has been in German, French, Italian, Spanish and English-language films.

In 1964 she began playing Morticia Addams in the television series The Addams Family, a role which brought her success as a comedienne and a Golden Globe Award nomination. Born in Shavei Zion, she studied ballet in Stockholm, where she appeared in her first film: Hemsöborna (1955). By 1963 she and Spelling were separated, and by 1964 they were divorced. Daliah Lavi (born Daliah Lewinbuk on October 12, 1942) is an Israeli actress and model. In 1958 she shared a Golden Globe Award for "Most Promising Newcomer" with Sandra Dee and Diane Varsi, and appeared with Elvis Presley in King Creole. She appeared in Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1957), and received a nomination for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for The Bachelor Party (1957).

Donna Reed was cast in her role. A role in House of Wax (1953) brought her good reviews, and she was cast in From Here to Eternity (also 1953), but illness forced her withdrawal. In 1953 she married aspiring filmmaker Aaron Spelling, and her film career began to gain momentum. She secured a contract with Paramount Studios and made her first film in 1952.

Born Carolyn Sue Baker in Amarillo, Texas, Jones joined the Pasadena Playhouse in 1947. Carolyn Jones (April 28, 1929 - August 3, 1983) was an American actress.
