Dawn Addams

Biography

Maybe because her beauty was too smooth or because her acting talents were limited or both, Dawn Addams, the daughter of an R.A.F. officer, had an undistinguished film career, in which second-rate pictures far outnumber quality ones. Among the latter: Otto Preminger's risqué (for its time) The Moon Is Blue (1953), Charles Chaplin's bitter A King in New York (1957) and Fritz Lang's last The 1,000 Eyes of Dr. Mabuse (1960).
