Valora Noland

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Valora Noland (* 8. December 1941 in Seattle , Washington as Valor Tree ) is an American actress .

Life

Allegedly, Noland's mother, Mrs. Baum, was so moved by a speech given by Winston Churchill in 1939 : Death and sorrow will be the companions of our journey; hardship our garment; constancy and valor our only shield that she named her later-born daughter Valor. She grew up in Santa Cruz , California and attended Santa Cruz High School there. When she decided to become an actress at the age of nineteen, she added an "a" to her first name and changed her last name to Noland. She began training at the Pasadena Playhouse , but left it after a year and a half. She then found an agent and began her acting career on television in the 1960s. She had her first two small appearances in 1961 in the episode of suspected murder in the western series West of Santa Fé and in the crime series Polizeirevier 87 . A year later she made her film debut as "the girl" in Daniel Mann's A Stranger Arrived , whereby the scene with her was cut out again in the final version. In 1963 she played Rhonda, the Dolores' best friend, played by Annette Funicello , in William Asher's comedy film Beach Party . In the sequel Muscle Beach Party in 1964, she played a character named Animal. Other film appearances followed, for example as Vickie in Joseph Adler's romantic drama Sex and the College Girl in 1964, as Diana in James Bruner's Summer Children in 1965, as Margaret Courtney in Eddie Romero's award-winning drama The Passionate Strangers in 1966 and as Kate in Burt Kennedy's Western- Heritage-Award-winning Western The Powerful . She can also be seen in the television series Mother is the Very Best (1963, 1965), Amos Burke (1963, 1965) and subsequently Stencils of Violence in the science fiction series Raumschiff Enterprise (1968). She has not appeared as an actress since 1968.
