Actor Born: August 10, 1924 in Fort Worth, TX Biography:The daughter of a Texas judge, "Martha Hyer" majored in speech and drama at Northwestern University. Her work at the Pasadena Playhouse led to a 1946 contract with RKO. Free from her contract in 1951, Hyer free-lanced in films made both in the U.S. and abroad. She earned an Academy Award nomination for her portrayal of a prim small schoolteacher in "Some Came Running" (1958), but has also played "hot to trot" roles in films like "Pyro" (1966) and spoiled-little-rich-girl types in films such as "The Happening" (1967). The widow of producer "Hal B. Wallis", "Martha Hyer" has set forth her life story in the 1990 autobiography Finding My Way. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
