జీవిత చరిత్ర
Lovely, buxom, and shapely blonde bombshell Judith Lee Bamber was born on October 13, 1936 in Ann Arbor, Michigan. She is of mixed German-English and American Indian descent. Her father was an engineer with the Ford Motor Company. Judy started modeling while in high school so she could lose weight and correct her posture. Following graduation from Dearborn High School in 1954, Bamber moved to Detroit to further pursue a modeling career. While in Detroit, Judy met television announcer Frank Robinson, whom she eventually married. In 1955, she moved to Los Angeles, California and worked as a carhop, a laundry clerk, a babysitter, and a dishwasher before her modeling career took off. Bamber briefly owned her own agency and modeled for the J.C. Penney catalog. She then began doing live commercials and was eventually discovered by Nils Thor Granlund, who set her up with drama coach Joe Graham. Judy attended Warner Brothers Acting School. Her personal manager Bryon Griffin got her contracts with both Warner Brothers and American International Pictures. (Both contracts were subsequently dropped when the two studios found out about this.)
Bamber acted in a handful of films and television series in the 1950s and 1960s; she was especially memorable as the snippy and obnoxious Alice in Roger Corman's hilarious horror black comedy cult gem A Bucket of Blood (1959). Moreover, Judy was a popular pin-up girl of the period: She graced the covers of and/or was featured in such men's magazines as "Modern Man", "Vue", "Glamor Parade", "Gaze", "Snappy", "Male Point of View", "Caper" and "Gala". In addition, Bamber also was featured as the cover model on various albums. She gave birth to son Louis I. on September 13, 1962. Judy quit acting and modeling in the mid-1960s so she could focus instead on raising her family. Bamber married Douglas W. McClary on November 11, 1967 and gave birth to son Brooks S. on November 18, 1971. McClary died at age 72 in 2004, and Judy remarried the following year. Bamber lives in Los Angeles, California.
