Pamela Lincoln (born Pamela Gill; June 19, 1937 - November 21, 2019)[1][2] was an American actress of television and film. Her best known movie role is the William Castle film The Tingler where her screams save the life of Vincent Price who is being attacked by the bizarre creature. Pamela had contract roles on two daytime soap operas, Love of Life as the tragic Felicia Fleming Lamont (1974-1977) who was involved with the dashing Eduardo Aleata (played by John Aniston) while married to the older Charles Lamont, and The Doctors as the scheming Doreen Aldrich (1977-1979) who notoriously kidnapped heroine Carolee Aldrich (her former sister-in-law) when she falsely believed that she was dying of leukemia and decided that she wanted Carolee's husband, Steve. In 1984, Pamela appeared on One Life to Live as Suzanne Allardyce, the widow of the president of a fictional South American country.

She was born in Los Angeles, California to actress Verna Hillie and writer Frank Gill Jr.[3][4] She was married to actor Darryl Hickman in 1959 and had two children with him;[5] they subsequently divorced in 1982.[6][7]
