Jane Randolph (born Jane Roemer October 30, 1919, Youngstown, Ohio) is an American film actress.[1]
After growing up in Kokomo, Indiana, she moved to Hollywood in 1939 in an attempt to start a movie career. She was eventually picked up by Warner Bros. and appeared in bit movie roles in 1941.[2]
In 1942, RKO picked up the contract of the poised actress and she received a leading lady role in Highways by Night (1942). She would become known for her roles in film noir, which included Jealousy (1945) and Railroaded! (1947), and in a few popular but inexpensive horror films, including Cat People (1942) and The Curse of the Cat People (1944).[3]
One of her last movies was the comic thriller Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948). A year later she married and retired to Spain and began the life of a socialite. In later years she returned to Los Angeles, but also maintains a home in Switzerland.[4]
