Jennifer Helene Maxwell


 Jennifer Helene Maxwell (September 3, 1941 – June 10, 1981)

Vincente Minnelli saw Maxwell when she was 16 years old and a high school student in Brooklyn. He had her do a screen test to possibly portray Frank Sinatra's niece in Some Came Running. Maxwell played spoiled Ellie Corbett in Blue Hawaii (1961), alongside Elvis Presley. She also appeared in Blue Denim (1959), Take Her, She's Mine (1963), and Shotgun Wedding (1963). In addition to this she appeared in several television shows, including Father Knows Best (1959), The Twilight Zone (1961), Route 66 (1961), The Joey Bishop Show (1962), 77 Sunset Strip (1963) and My Three Sons (1967). She was married twice, and had one son from her first marriage. Maxwell and her second husband Ervin Roeder were shot and killed in the lobby of Maxwell's Beverly Hills condo during what was reported at the time as being a botched robbery. She was 39 years old.
