Career
Born in 1920 in Philadelphia and raised in Upper Darby Township, Pennsylvania, Donlon attended a convent school in Tarrytown, New York.

Her television credits include roles in Have Gun - Will Travel, The Texan, Richard Diamond, Private Detective, Maverick, Perry Mason, The Jack Benny Program, 77 Sunset Strip and I Love Lucy.
In 1957, Donlon was Playboy's August Playmate of the Month.[1]
