Angela Stevens (born Ann Evelyn Allen[1], May 8, 1925 – March 17, 2016) was an American film actress and singer.[1]
Biography
Stevens was born in Eagle Rock, California.[2] She appeared in several Three Stooges films, such as He Cooked His Goose, Pardon My Backfire and Blunder Boys.[citation needed] Other credits include The Hoodlum, Without Warning!, Creature with the Atom Brain, The Harder They Fall and The Wild One.
In 1955, Stevens sued a dress shop owner for $36,500, saying that an attack from a "wild and vicious" ocelot disfigured her, which cost her a role in a film.[3]
Stevens married George Zika in the early 1940s[2]
