Bieler’s recommendation and with his prescription, Allison began talking a calcium food supplement daily. Henry Bieler, on the advice of her close friend, actress Gloria Swanson who had been his patient for many years. Sometime in 1962, Allison began seeing Dr. After the onset of her illness in the mid 1960s, she was simply too ill to work and was housebound for long periods of time. For years, Hayes had taken a doctor-prescribed calcium supplement with extreme levels of lead-so extreme that she contracted lead poisoning. Viewers will note that she looks thin and gaunt in this, her only scene in the film. Hayes is featured in the beginning of Tickle Me as a drunken bar patron who lunges as Elvis as he performs.

In her last film, she appeared alongside Elvis Presley in Tickle Me (1965). After 1960, Hayes began taking on more television roles and made films only sporadically thereafter. Always in demand, Hayes' busiest period came in the late 1950s when she was cast in numerous B film roles, such as Gunslinger (1956), The Unearthly (1957), The Disembodied (1957) Attack of the Fifty-Foot Woman (1958), and The High Powered Rifle (1960).

In addition, Hayes made many guest appearances on popular TV programs in the 1950s and 1960s. Allison Hayes acted in a string of B movies, along with a few "A" films, from 1954 to 1965. Hayes took jobs in early television in Washington before moving to California in 1953 to begin an acting career. Later on in life she penned The Bewitched Cookbook: Magic in the Kitchen ( A copy of which I happily own).īorn Mary Jane Hayes in Charleston, West Virginia, on March 6, 1930, Allison Hayes grew up to become Miss Washington D.C. In 1972, she made her final appearance on Bewitched and appeared in a few more TV shows through the 70s. She also returned to the name Kasey Rogers professionally. She left Peyton Place in 1966, replacing Irene Vernon in the role of Louise Tate on Bewitched. In 1964, she was cast as Julie Anderson night-time soap opera Peyton Place. Particularly remembered is her turn as Miriam Haynes (who has a very memorable death scene) in Alfred Hitchcock’s Strangers on a Train (1951) for Warner Bros.įrom the mid-1950s, she guest starred on various TV shows, such as The Lone Ranger, Maverick, Perry Mason, The Restless Gun, and Hawaiian Eye. With these lead roles, came smaller roles in classic films from the studio including Samson and Delilah (1949) and A Place in the Sun (1951 - uncredited role of Miss Harper) as well as work at other studios. In addition to Special Agent (1949), she appeared in films including Two Lost Worlds (1951), Silver City (1951), Denver and Rio Grande (1952), and Jamaica Run (1953). Kasey worked under the name "Laura Elliot" for Paramount. She really never struggled as an actress, winning a contract and lead role in Special Agent (1949) almost immediately. This lead to a screen test and contract at Paramount during the late 1940s. She was literally spotted on the street by a talent scout, and touched base with him again after the birth of her first child. My Mystery Lady was none other than Kasey Rogers, the actress who played Laura Eliot in Strangers on a Train but probably better known to TV viewing audiences for playing Louise Tate on Bewitched.īorn Josie Imogene Rogers in Morehouse, Missouri on December 15, 1925, she adopted the nickname "Kasey" as a child. A recent posting over at Stirred, Straight Up With a Twist inspired my latest guessing game, TJB's posting on Evolution, particularly his picture of Patrica Hitchcock(close guess TJB!) got me to thinking about "Strangers on a Train" and Hitchcock's fantastically shot murder of Laura Eliot reflected in the lenses of her fallen glasses.
