I guess you could call her an icon of the 60s. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/09/m...useketeer-dies-at-70.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

I remember how the boys were all crazy about her, and the girls all wanted to be like her. She definitely had something about her ... a nice combination of the sweet girl next door and a sex symbol. And I like how she didn't take those silly "beach blanket" movies too seriously. She seemed like a very nice lady.
RIP Annette. I was somewhat surprised about this. She was my favorite mouskateer back then, and was very attractive as an adult.
