Charlotte Austin

Charlotte Austin was born on Nov 02, 1933 in USA. Charlotte Austin's big-screen debut came with Belles on Their Toes directed by Henry Levin in 1952.

Named for her birthplace (Charlotte, North Carolina), Charlotte Austin was the daughter of Gene Austin, a top crooner of the 1920s and 1930s and the composer of many popular songs. Dramatic training and a screen test led to a contract at 20th Century-Fox for Charlotte in the early 1950s, when she had parts in the studio's Comment épouser un millionnaire (1953), Désirée (1954) and Papa longues jambes (1955), and she co-starred (on loanout to Columbia) in the musical Rainbow 'Round My Shoulder (1952). Freelancing after the mid-'50s, she moved from musicals to monsters, perhaps most notoriously tackling half of the title role in the Edward D. Wood Jr.-scripted La Fiancée de la jungle (1958). She is now a dealer in antiques.
