In addition to Ms. Porter, another long forgotten actress of the same time frame passed over the last weekend. Dorothy Malone, 93, was perhaps best known for her portrayal of the nymphomanic daughter of a Texas oil tycoon in "Written on the Wind", a movie largely thought to have set the stage for later TV dramas of dysfunctional well-off families such as "Dallas" and Dynasty".
Another recent passing was that of soul and blues singer Denise LaSalle. While never attaining much commercial chart success, she neverless enjoyed a cult following among afficiandos of this type of music ala Irma Thomas.
