Life

She went to Broadway and won for her role in the musical Hold it! the Theater World Award . After appearing in All for Love in 1949 , she was signed to Warner Bros. and went to Hollywood .
She met her future husband, Errol Flynn , while filming For A Fistful of Money , and moved to Portland Parish, Jamaica in the 1950s, where she lived until the end.
Wymore was mostly active in the 1950s and 1960s, starring alongside Doris Day , Kirk Douglas , Randolph Scott and Frank Sinatra . In Frankie and his cronies from 1960, she played Sinatra's friend.
