Stella Stevens, who brought glamour and comic touch to Hollywood, dies at 84
. Once again playing a prostitute, Ms. Stevens showed a generous amount of skin but also a deft touch with dialogue and physical comedy, as she and Robards’s title character, a rough-edged prospector, develop a warm, if short-lived relationship.. “There are few enough actresses who can be funny and feminine at the same time, but she is certainly one of them.”
“All I did in Memphis was wait to grow up,” she once told an interviewer. “I didn’t like being a child.” At 16, she married Herman Stephens, another teenager who worked as an electrician. Their son was born in 1955, and they divorced a year later. In addition to her son, Andrew, who became an actor, director and producer, survivors include three grandchildren. Ms. Stevens never remarried, but she had a 40-year relationship with Bob Kulick, a rock guitarist and producer who died in 2020.
