London, Julie
▪ 2001
Julie Peck 
      American singer and actress (b. Sept. 26, 1926, Santa Rosa, Calif.—d. Oct. 18, 2000, Los Angeles, Calif.), had a sultry, sophisticated look and a smoky voice that gained her pinup status and enhanced her success in films and as a torch singer in the 1940s and '50s. “Cry Me a River”—a single from the first of her 32 albums, Julie Is Her Name (1955)—sold over three million copies and remained the song most associated with her. From 1972 to 1977 London achieved new popularity with her role as Nurse Dixie McCall in the American television series Emergency!
