Dark-haired siren Pamela Tiffin debuted in Summer and Smoke (1961) and was a scene-stealing comedienne in Billy Wilder's One, Two, Three (1961) before becoming the queen of teenage camp in Come Fly with Me (1963), For Those Who Think Young (1964) and The Pleasure Seekers (1964).

After landing a sexy adult role in Harper (1966), she went blonde and ran away to Italy to star in such films as Kiss the Other Sheik (1965), The Fifth Cord (1971) and Deaf Smith & Johnny Ears. Stardom eluded her, though she remains a 60s cult icon. This thoroughly researched career retrospective pays tribute to Tiffin, adored by critics and hailed by James Cagney for her ""remarkable flair for comedy."" Interviews offer a behind-the-scenes look at her most popular films.

Tom Lisanti, the author of six McFarland books, has written extensively about sixties cinema. He contributes to Cinema Retro and blogs at www.sixtiescinema.com. He lives in New York, USA.
