She has been married to David Ashrow, a dentist turned actor, since 1976. In 1961, Whitman was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role as a child molester in The Mark. Summers refused her many offers of marriage, much to her chagrin. His first starring role was in Murder, Inc. in 1960. Despite this, she was married briefly to Glenn Maxwell. He had a small part in When Worlds Collide, then took small roles in such films as The All American, Brigadoon, Ten North Frederick and The Sound and the Fury. Members of the nascent jet-set, Allyson and Summers were frequently seen in Cap d'Antibes, Madrid, Rome and London.

After leaving the army, he enrolled in Los Angeles City College and the Los Angeles Academy of Dramatic Art. 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. Born in San Francisco, California, he graduated from high school in Los Angeles and spent three years in the Army Corps of Engineers, where he took up boxing. Following Powell's death, she went though a bitter court battle with her mother over custody of son Ricky and Pamela. Stuart Whitman (born February 1, 1926 or, according to other sources 1928 or 1929) is an American actor. 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. 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.

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). 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.
