A brief note on the slim glacial blonde Nash, who was whisked from an intended career as a doctor to star in Charlie Chaplin's 1947 film Monsieur Verdoux. She made only one further film - a leading role in the cult sci-fi movie Unknown World in 1951. After some TV and theatre work, she became a location casting director for films shot in the Oroville, California area, as well as reviewing films for local publications. The first of her two husbands was the distinguished screenwriter Philip Yordan.
