Actress
Carolyn Jones and...
No, Not Batman This Time !
Instead... As Mother To Wonder Woman!
That's Right!!!!!
I previously posted that even though I personally enjoyed her role with Elvis Presley in the movie 'King Creole', and that most of America remembers her as Morticia Adams in the TV series 'The Addams Family', she was also a star villain in the 1966 Batman TV Series !!
Carolyn played the villain 'Marsha Queen of Diamonds' in episodes #57 & 58 first shown 11-23-66 & 11-24-66.
Afterwards she married Herbert S. Green in 1968, a voice specialist for actors. While she was still doing TV work, Carolyn would be cast in Tobe Hooper’s 'Eaten Alive' in 1977. This was a horror film that also featured the future Freddy Krueger, Robert Englund.
However more important for comic book fans, she was seen in some of the Wonder Woman TV Show episodes, as 'Queen Hippolyta of the Amazons', mother of Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter) seen to the right.
Carolyn went on to do an Addams Family reunion TV movie, and some other roles. She unfortunately passed away at the young age of 53 due to her ongoing battle with colon cancer in 1983. She was a good actress and I enjoyed the movies and TV shows that she starred in....
