Born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, on August 12, 1941, to parents who were professional ice skaters in Icecapades, as a child Deborah Walley
was more interested in dramatics rather than skating, so her parents enrolled her in drama classes. In her teenage years she began getting
good notices in off-Broadway stage productions, but her acting career took off when she was cast in the starring role in her first film,
Gidget Goes Hawaiian (1961; with James Darren). After her stint as Gidget, Walley then made a few Disney films, such as Bon
Voyage! (1962; with Fred MacMurray and Tommy Kirk). However, she soon returned to
beach party and youth-oriented films, most notably at American International (AIP), where she acted in a number
of beach party genre movies. Walley starred in such films as Ski Party (1965; with Frankie Avalon
and Yvonne Craig), Beach Blanket Bingo (1965; with
Annette Funicello and John Ashley), The Ghost
in the Invisible Bikini (1966; with Tommy Kirk and Boris Karloff),
and It's a Bikini World (1967; with Tommy Kirk). In addition, she
also dabbled in singing, first doing numbers for Sergeant Deadhead (1965; with Frankie Avalon
and Eve Arden) and Ski Party, which showcased her pleasant voice, and she released a few singles in
1965 and 1966.
