Felicia Farr Biography

Penn State alumnus Felicia Farr always seemed much too intelligent for the standard western leading lady parts she was usually saddled with in films. It was a far more rewarding experience to watch Farr essay such roles as the drunken, frustrated housewife who--almost in spite of herself--seduces pop star Dean Martin in Kiss Me, Stupid. In 1962, Farr became the second wife of actor Jack Lemmon, a union that stands to this day. Felicia Farr has acted with her husband in That's Life (1986), and was directed by him in Kotch (1971). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
