Harriette Tarler (November 4, 1920 – November 18, 2001), was an American film actress. Born in New York, New York, Tarler appeared in over 15 films between 1956 and 1959.
Tarler is best known for her prominent work in many late Three Stooges shorts. In particular, she made her mark in the films featuring Joe Besser as the third Stooge. She appeared in eight of the 16 shorts with Besser, and starred in all three of the science fiction comedies (Space Ship Sappy, Outer Space Jitters, and Flying Saucer Daffy). [1]
Perhaps Tarler's most memorable role was in Hoofs and Goofs, where she played the dual role of Mr. Dinklespeil's (Benny Rubin) daughter, and also provided the voice of Joe Besser's reincarnated sister Bertie. Tarler provided Bertie's voice again in the sequel Horsing Around. Other films in include Commotion on the Ocean, Rumpus in the Harem, and A Merry Mix Up.[1]
In addition to her Stooge work, Tarler also appeared in film The Joker Is Wild with Frank Sinatra, and made many appearances in the television show Dragnet.[1]
Tarler left the Hollywood scene in the early 1960s, and returned to New York. In later years, she became an avid orchid grower. She passed away in New York on November 18, 2001.[1]
