“Now, remember. I don’t want you to touch anything that you don’t recognize.” – Lola Albright, Ms. Barrett, The Monolith Monsters
Thankfully for the male persuasion, the smooth, eternally cool Lola Albright definitely didn’t need to heed her own warning. The first cut from her debut album, Lola Wants You, certainly confirmed that she was worldly wise and definitely familiar with the opposite sex:
Often singing a sultry tune on the jazzy private eye show Peter Gunn, Albright also played into the lives of monster-kids everywhere. Her sympathetic school teacher in Universal’s (above mentioned) Atomic Age horror The Monolith Monsters made her a highlight for Scary Monsters readers everywhere. Nicely, Albright, who died at the age of 92 in 2017, also indulged in some mature suspense movement on several episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents and a long lost 1975 television film called The Nurse Killer.
Gay Magic: Colorfully, Lola began her career as a featured actress at MGM. Her credits include smaller roles in two Judy Garland films – The Pirate and Easter Parade.
