The 97th birthday of June Lockhart just passed on June 25. The actress has had a very successful career, appearing in shows like “Lost in Space” and “Lassie” where she became well-known.
She was born on June 25, 1925, and she started working in the entertainment business at a very young age. In 1938, she and her parents were in the play “A Christmas Carol.” After this, she went on stage in a play, and her career hasn’t stopped going forward since then.
Lockhart’s most famous roles were ones in which she played a mother. On the hit show “Lassie,” she played Timmy Martin’s mother. She did a great job with the role, which earned her praise from critics.
She once called the show “a fairy tale about people on a farm where the dog solves all the problems in 22 minutes, just in time for the last commercial.”
Her role as Dr. Maureen Robinson on the hit show “Lost in Space” was another one of her most famous roles. She was the head of the family on the show, taking care of both their food needs and the things they needed to build as they traveled.
During the time she was filming the show, she got close to Bill Mumy, who played her on-screen son. Later, Mumy told me that Lockhart carried around a picture of David Bowie, an artist you wouldn’t expect.
Mumy had more nice things to say about the actress than just that, though. “June is a very interesting person… Without a doubt, she is one of the smartest people I’ve ever met. She is the real queen of rock and roll. I swear to god. Mumy said, “She lives for rock and roll.”
June Lockhard will be remembered as a true icon for more than just the roles she played that made her famous. She has not just one star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, but two. She got one for her work in movies, and she got the other for her work on TV.
On February 8, 1960, she got both of them at the same time. In addition to these two stars, NASA also gave her the Exceptional Public Achievement Medal in recognition of her work to get more people interested in space.
She has been working hard for almost 80 years. She has been in many well-known TV shows, including “Grey’s Anatomy,” “7th Heaven,” and “General Hospital.”
She is married to John Maloney, and they have two girls. From 1951 to 1959, they were married for 8 years. Anne Lockhart and Lizabeth Lockhart, both of whom are actresses, are their daughters.
