Timeline
Sheree North was born on January 17, 1932 in Los Angeles, California, USA as Dawn Shirley Crang.
Married four times, she had two daughters: Dawn Jeanette Bessire (born 1949) and Erica Eve Sommer (born 1959), from different marriages, and four grandchildren, all of whom survived her.
Born in Los Angeles, the daughter of seamstress June Bethel (née Shoard) and trained in dance, as a young woman she sanded floors and parked cars to pay for her ballet lessons. During World War II, after lying about her age, she danced in several USO shows. From her late teens, danced in nightclubs in Santa Monica. Eventually spotted by a talent scout, she ended up on Broadway doing a lively routine in the musical "Hazel Flagg" (1953), consequently winning a Theatre World Award. This directly led to her being cast for the film Living It Up (1954).
Used as a bargaining chip by Fox against an unreliable Marilyn Monroe, she was found to have Monroe's exact weight and measurements at the time. When she was pictured on the cover of the March 21, 1955, issue of Life Magazine, the headline read, "Sheree North Takes Over From Marilyn Monroe". She later played Monroe's real-life unbalanced mother, Gladys, in Marilyn: The Untold Story (1980).
She took over for Shirley Knight in a Los Angeles production of "Dutchman," which coincided with the 1965 Watts riots. The production was controversial and was blamed by conservatives for inciting unrest. It was picketed, ads were blocked from the newspapers and North's car was set on fire. Despite that, the production ran for a year.
Best-known in later years for her prolific television work, she played Lou Grant's spunky girlfriend on The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1970) and was Kramer's mom on Seinfeld (1989), who was the first to announce his first name to fans: "Cosmo". She also earned Emmy nominations for appearances on Marcus Welby, M.D. (1969) and Archie Bunker's Place (1979).
She was an actress, known for Breakout (1975), Charley Varrick (1973) and Cold Dog Soup (1990). She was married to Phillip Alan Norman, Dr. Gerhardt Ralph Sommer, John M. "Bud" Freeman and Frederick Arnold Bessire Jr.
North was married to Emmy Award-winning film title designer Phillip Alan "Phill" Norman, her companion (from 1981) and husband (from 2003), until her death in 2005. By this marriage, North was stepmother to Norman's daughter, Jessica Youd.
