Robin Raymond, sometimes credited as Robyn Raymond (born Rayemon Robin,^[1] October 4, 1916 – June 20, 1994^{[citation needed]} ) was an American film actress.

Early life

Raymond graduated from Northwestern University with a BA degree and worked as a press agent in Chicago.^[2]

Career

On Broadway, Raymond portrayed Blossom Le Verne in See My Lawyer (1939).^[3]

She signed a movie contract with MGM in 1941 and was cast in incidental roles for one year. The she began freelancing, ultimately appearing in more than 40 films including Johnny Eager (1942) and as a slave girl in Arabian Nights (1942). Her screen personality was usually that of a hard-boiled glamour girl, in the manner of the better known Iris Adrian. Her voice and manner were so similar to Adrian's that when PRC's Iris Adrian feature Shake Hands with Murder was successful and the studio wanted a sequel, Adrian wasn't available so PRC substituted Robin Raymond (in her one starring role, the 1944 feature Rogues' Gallery.)

One of Raymond's more memorable roles may have been that of a good-hearted burlesque dancer Tanya Zakoyla in the film noir The Glass Wall (1953). She appeared in Episode 32 (Alpine, Texas) of Trackdown, and was featured on the Perry Mason program in the 1957 episode "The Case of the Hesitant Hostess."

Personal life

Raymond married nightclub owner Norman E. Heeb in Las Vegas, Nevada, on June 15, 1941. They were divorced on November 28, 1941.^[4] On January 26, 1947, she married multimillionaire Harry A. Epstein in Yuma, Arizona. They were divorced on February 16, 1955.^[5]
