Joi Lansing et ses poumons magiques



biography

Gorgeous actress and model Joi Lansing was born Joyce Wassmandorff in Salt Lake City, Utah, in April 1928 (some sources cite 1929 and 1935 as her year of birth). By the late 1940s, she had made her way to Hollywood, where she began modeling assignments and making brief walk-ons in films. In 1951, she married fellow actor Lance Fuller, soon after both had made brief appearances in the big-budget 1952 musical Singin' in the Rain. Fuller also acted in a number of B films throughout the 1950s, including This Island Earth with Faith Domergue and the Ed Wood-penned The Bride and the Beast. However, Lansing's marriage to Fuller was short-lived and ended in 1953. With her film career going nowhere fast, Lansing returned to modeling, for which her gorgeous figure came in handy.

Lansing's career finally took off in 1956, but the medium was television, not film; she landed a recurring role on TV's Love that Bob, starring Robert Cummings. She also made a number of guest shots on late 1950s TV shows, and even did a few commericals. When her role on Love that Bob ended, Lansing was soon offered another TV show, Klondike, which premiered in the fall of 1960.

While appearing on TV programs, Lansing also had occasion to appear in a few films, such as Queen of Outer Space (1958) with Eric Fleming and Zsa Zsa Gabor. During the same year, she made a brief appearance in the Orson Welles classic Touch of Evil, a film in which Gabor also appears. Still, however, her film career didn't come to fruition, so she resumed her television career in a series of guest spots on the CBS TV series The Beverly Hillbillies, where she appeared as Gladys Flatt.
