Dixie Wanda Hendrix was born November 3rd, 1928, in Jacksonville, FL. Discovered by a Warner Bros. talent scout, she came to Hollywood at the age of 16. By 19, she co-stars with Bob in Ride the Pink Horse (1947). Two years later she makes the first big mistake in her life when she marries alcoholic and war-damaged Audi Murphy. She left the very violent and philandering Murphy after seven months, to find her career damaged because of the bad press. (Geesch!)
Ms. Hendrix had three husbands, no children, and died at the much too young age of 52 of double pneumonia. (And for the record, she had a 17-inch waist, the smallest in Hollywood!! If you can believe a publicist...)
She grew up to be a rather nice-looking lady.
