also, she was one of the ten most photographed women of the 60s*


I saw two minutes of The Ballad of Cable Hogue over lunch. This is the first part of the biography of its female lead:

A native of Hot Coffee, Mississippi, Stella Stevens was married at 15, a mother at 16 and divorced at 17. While attending Memphis State College, Stella became interested in acting and modeling. Her film debut was a bit part in Say One for Me, but her appearance in Li'l Abner as Appassionata Von Climax is the one that got her noticed...

'Hot Coffee' is what the locals call it, but it's not a municipal area. She comes from Yazoo City, really. Also, she once opened an art gallery in Twisp.
