Welcome To The Archive for "Carol Lynley"! Yay!

Carol Lynley is an American actress and former child model. Lynley was born Carole Ann Jones in Manhattan; she was the daughter of Frances and Cyril Jones. Her father was Irish and her mother, a native of New England, was of English, Scottish, Welsh and German ancestry. She began her career as a child model under the name Carolyn Lee. When she started acting after appearing on the April 22, 1957 cover of Life magazine at 15, she discovered that child actress Carolyn Lee had already registered the name; she modified it by using the final syllable of Carolyn and fusing it with Lee to make Lynley.
