Biography

Charlene, born in Ohio, graduated from Youngstown University in the mid-1960s, where she married her first husband, poet Frank Polite. After graduation, she performed in regional theater, including the Pittsburgh Playhouse, where she held a post-graduate scholarship. She later relocated to San Francisco to work at the American Conservatory Theater, founded by the provocative stage director and Tony Award nominee William Ball, whom she had met in Pittsburgh.

She divorced her first husband in the late 1960s and remarried actor Ramon Bieri (1929–2001). The couple lived in Northridge, San Fernando Valley. After ending her film career in 1976, she divorced Bieri, moved to San Diego with her stepson, and returned to acting in regional theater.

In the late 1980s, her health deteriorated. She moved back to Youngstown, Ohio, to be near her first husband's family, where she passed away due to complications from breast cancer.

Described variously as "a true child of the 1960s," "spiritual," "extravagant," and "eccentric," with a great sense of humor, she was a strikingly beautiful red-haired brunette who gave up her film career to dedicate her life to raising her stepson.
