It's funny about career choices. I had to fight to test for the Janet Leigh role in Walking My Baby Back Home. Janet couldn't dance at the time and I could-but she was a bigger name. I also fought to get the role Piper Laurie had in Son of Ali Baba. Luckily, I lost that one. The one I didn't want to do was Revenge of the Creature. Science-Fiction was considered bottom of the barrel in those days. Of course, that's the picture I am most remembered for. It's very ironic! (Lori Nelson)
