Few of her ingenue roles of the 1940s were memorable, though Lockhart did get to play the title character in "The She-Wolf of London" (1945) (never mind that she turned out not to be a she-wolf by fadeout time).

She went on to play the young matriarch of the "space family Robinson" on the "Irwin Allen" TV endeavor... Full Biography
