Ruth Roman
Ruth Roman, a screen actress who made her electricity charged combination of sexiness and wholesomeness into Hollywood fame in the late 1950s and 1940s, passed away in her home at Laguna Beach, Calif. She was 75. Richard Hall, son of Ruth Roman, confirmed that she died quietly in her sleep. Warner Brothers gave Hall nine main roles, all in the age of two, following her debut opposite Kirk Douglas, in Stanley Kramer's 1949 adaptation of Ring Lardner's story Champion in which she played a famous prize fighter with a psychotic streak. It was her turn to work alongside Bette Davis on the film 'Beyond the Forest'' performing Milton Berle's 'Always leave the audience laughing' in only one day. After the conclusion of ''Strangers on a Train with Robert Walker, she was invited to appear in ''Tomorrow's A Different Day'' along with Steve Cochran.
