Biography

Joan Haythorne, a talented and accomplished actress, entered this world on April 12, 1915, in the lovely borough of Ealing, situated in the heart of London, England, United Kingdom. Throughout her remarkable career, she left an indelible mark on the world of entertainment, starring in a plethora of notable films, including the 1947 production of "Jassy", the 1954 release of "Svengali", and the 1946 film "Secret Flight", to name but a few. Her personal life was equally as fulfilling, as she shared her life with the love of her life, Lindsay Shankland. Tragically, her life came to a close on August 27, 1987, in the picturesque county of Surrey, England, United Kingdom.
