Biography edit
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, The Sun Was Setting by Edward D. Wood Jr, 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]
