About Veronica Lake

  • Veronica Lake (born Constance Frances Marie Ockelman; November 14, 1922 – July 7, 1973) was an American film, stage, and television actor.
  • Lake was best known for her femme fatale roles in film noirs with Alan Ladd during the 1940s and her peek-a-boo hairstyle.
  • By the late 1940s, Lake's career began to decline, due in part to her alcoholism.
  • She made only one film in the 1950s, but made several guest appearances on television.
  • She returned to the big screen in 1966 in the film Footsteps in the Snow (1966), but the role failed to revitalize her career. Lake's memoir, Veronica: The Autobiography of Veronica Lake, was published in 1970.
  • Her final screen role was in a low-budget horror film, Flesh Feast (1970).
  • Lake died in July 1973 from hepatitis and acute kidney injury at the age of 50.
