June Allyson

She has been married to David Ashrow, a dentist turned actor, since 1976. She is a graduate of Yale University. Summers refused her many offers of marriage, much to her chagrin. Jennifer Beals is biracial, with an African-American father (deceased since she was 10) and an Irish mother. Despite this, she was married briefly to Glenn Maxwell. Beals also stars in Showtime Network's The L Word. Members of the nascent jet-set, Allyson and Summers were frequently seen in Cap d'Antibes, Madrid, Rome and London. She has participated in little more than 50 movies.

Reports at the time revealed that writer/director Dirk Summers, with whom Allyson was romantically involved from 1963-1975, was named legal guardian for Ricky and Pamela as a result of a court petition. Beals has since starred in a list of lesser-known films and independent projects. Following Powell's death, she went though a bitter court battle with her mother over custody of son Ricky and Pamela. Her career was affected by scandal shortly after, however, when it was revealed that some of the scenes in that movie where athletics were required were actually performed not by Beals herself, but by doubles. They had two children, Pamela Allyson Powell (adopted) and Richard Powell, Jr., and remained married until his death on January 2, 1963, which led to Allyson's effective retirement from the screen. Flashdance made Beals a Hollywood star and made her a household name. On August 19, 1945, Allyson caused Hollywood studio chiefs some consternation by marrying Dick Powell, who was 13 years her senior and had been previously married to Mildred Maund and Joan Blondell. Beals is a former teen model who is probably better known for her role as Alex in the 1983 movie Flashdance.

She also played straight roles such as the tomboy Jo in Little Women (1949) and Glenn Miller's wife in The Glenn Miller Story (1954). Jennifer Beals (born December 19, 1963) is an American actress. After her appearance in Best Foot Forward in 1941, she was selected for the 1943 film version, and followed it up with several other musicals, including Thousands Cheer and Good News! (1947). After a childhood accident, she took up both swimming and dancing as therapy, and made her Broadway chorus-line debut in 1938. She was born Ella Geisman in the Bronx, New York City, and brought up in near-poverty.
