Inez Cooper

Siapa ini?

Elizabeth Inez Cooper (March 1921 – December 1993) was an American actress, noted at the time for closely resembling actress Hedy Lamarr. Before her Hollywood career, Cooper worked in a department store, engaged in modeling jobs and traveled worldwide. Producer Mervyn LeRoy discovered her at a nightclub in 1941, mistaking her for Lamarr. After being offered a professional acting contract, Cooper entered the film industry and studied dramatics, although initially could only secure minor roles. Despite her resemblance to Lamarr, Cooper faced challenges in landing significant roles, often relegated to minor parts in films such as Whistling in the Dark and Du Barry Was a Lady. She expressed frustration with issues arising from her uncanny similarity to Lamarr, although did secure the lead in the 1943 romance film Wings Over the Pacific, as the only female among the main cast. Cooper died in December 1993 at a local hospital and was buried at Alabama Heritage Cemetery.
