B-movie bad girl Fay Spain was born in Phoenix, Arizona, on October 6, 1932 (some sources cite 1933 as her year of birth). Her childhood proved to be
so tumultuous that she left home as a teenager and supported herself working odd jobs, most notably as a dealer in a casino. Her acting career began in New York, where she did summer
stock work. A few stage roles ensued, followed by some television work. While still a teenager, she married actor John Falvo, and the short-lived union
produced a son, Jock, and ended in divorce in 1958. With a son to support, Spain worked hard to build a modeling and acting career. Perhaps her earliest
TV appearance was as a contestant on the TV game show You Bet Your Life hosted by Groucho Marx. By 1956, Spain was having success landing
roles on several popular TV series of the day, including Lux Video Theatre and Cheyenne with Clint Walker.
The beautiful Spain was also a popular pin-up of the day, often appearing in magazines of the era.
