Nancy Dow (born July 22, 1936) is an American actress who appeared in a brief group of films. She was married to Greek-American actor John Aniston with whom she had a daughter, actress Jennifer Aniston.
Nancy Dow was born in New York City, one of six daughters of Louise (née Grieco) and Gordon McLean Dow. She is of Scottish-Canadian, English, Italian, and Irish ancestry.[1] Dow was married to Jack Melick, a pianist-bandleader based in Dallas, Texas, from 1956 to 1961.[citation needed] They had a son, John Melick.[citation needed]
Dow and her daughter were estranged for nine years, largely because Dow wrote a book about their relationship, entitled From Mother and Daughter to Friends: A Memoir (1999).[2] In 2005, after Aniston's divorce from Brad Pitt, she and her mother reportedly reconciled. Aniston described the progress of her new relationship with her mother as "baby steps".[3]
