Peaches, the ravishingly beautiful and soulful-eyed Hollywood glamour girl of the 1940s, was affectionately nicknamed "Peaches" due to her stunning physical appearance. Born in Burbank, California, she was the daughter of a motion picture sound engineer and one of three siblings. Peaches's early life was marked by a strong desire to become a movie star, a dream that was nurtured from a young age.
As she grew older, Peaches pursued a career in modeling, participating in local beauty pageants and advertising various products, including bread and bathing suits. Her father's connections in the film industry proved to be a valuable asset, as he helped her secure a job as a messenger in the mailroom at Universal-International. It was during this time that Peaches was reportedly "discovered" and subsequently signed under contract in 1946 to be groomed as a starlet.
Despite her striking looks and genuine talent, Peaches's aspirations of becoming a movie star were ultimately thwarted. She spent most of her time in films playing decorative roles or uncredited bit parts. In 1949, Peaches married Jack Moorman, a former classmate and football player, and the couple settled in Granada Hills, California. They had two children together, but the marriage ultimately ended in divorce in the mid-1970s.
In the latter years of her life, Peaches moved to Oregon in 2006 and devoted herself to dance recitals, art, and history. She passed away, leaving behind a legacy as a true Hollywood glamour girl of the 1940s.
