Laurel Goodwin Dies: Elvis Presley Co-Star, Last Surviving Cast Member Of 'Star Trek' Pilot, Was 79
https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/laurel-goodwin-dies-elvis-presley-224629964.htmlLaurel Goodwin, an actor who made her movie debut at age 19 opposite Elvis Presley in the 1962 feature Girls! Girls! Girls! and four years later played a crew member in the original, failed Star Trek pilot starring Jeffery Hunter, died February 25. She was 79.
Her death was announced by her sister Maureen Scott. A cause was not disclosed.
Born in Wichita, Kansas, and relocating to California with her family during World War II, Goodwin studied drama at San Francisco State University and was soon signed to a contract with Paramount Pictures. She debuted in Girls! Girls! Girls! as one of two potential love interests for Presley’s character (the other was portrayed by Stella Stevens).
