Vera Miles
Vera June Miles (nacida el 23 de agosto de 1929) es una actriz estadounidense. Nacida en Boise City, Oklahoma, Vera Miles asistió a la escuela en Pratt, Kansas y Wichita, Kansas. La belleza patricia de Miss Miles le valió el título de "Miss Kansas" en 1948, lo que pronto la llevó a pequeños papeles en películas y series de televisión de Hollywood. La fama le llegó a la franca y enérgica Miles cuando atrajo la atención de dos grandes directores, Alfred Hitchcock y John Ford. Ford la eligió para el clásico western The Searchers (1956) y Hitchcock, quien la puso bajo contrato personal y la aclamó como su "nueva Grace Kelly", la emparejó con el gran Henry Fonda en The Wrong Man (1956). Hitchcock eligió a Miles para el papel potencialmente estrella de Judy Barton en Vértigo (1958), pero Miles se retiró de la película cuando quedó embarazada. Hitchcock le dio a Miles un papel secundario en otra obra maestra, Psicosis (1960), al igual que Ford cuando la eligió junto a John Wayne y James Stewart para El hombre que mató a Liberty Valance (1962). También protagonizó películas como Beau James (1957). junto a Bob Hope, The FBI Story (1959) junto a Stewart, Back Street (1961) junto a Susan Hayward y John Gavin y Sergeant Ryker (1968) junto a Lee Marvin, además de mostrar su talento consistentemente notable y versátil en docenas de populares películas para televisión. y series que incluyen The Alfred Hitchcock Hour (1962), Twilight Zone (1959), The Outer Limits (1963), The Fugitive (1963), My Three Sons (1960), Bonanza (1959), "Columbo" y Murder, She Wrote. (1984). En 1983, repitió su papel de "Lila Crane" en la secuela cinematográfica Psycho II (1983), protagonizada por Anthony Perkins. Aunque, con demasiada frecuencia, los dones increíblemente hermosos de Miles fueron infrautilizados, antes de su jubilación en 1995, la suya era una carrera en Hollywood de lo más intrigante y duradera.
