Biography
Following in the footsteps of her aunt Nanette Fabray, who was a Tony Award-winning star of vaudeville theatre, Shelley Fabares began acting at just three-years-old and was barely in her teens when she became part of the hugely popular late 50s, early 60s sitcom The Donna Reed Show. It led to her releasing debut album Shelley! in 1962, and scoring the big hit Johnny Angel, which topped the US charts and sold over a million copies. With producer Stu Phillips honing her innocent, romantic pop sound, singles Johnny Loves Me and The Things We Did Last Summer also fared well and albums Teenage Trials and Bye Bye Birdie featured actors James Darren and Paul Peterson and doo-wop group The Marcels. Turning her focus to making movies, she starred as leading lady to Elvis Presley in Girl Happy, Spinout and Clambake and duetted with the Elvis Presley on the track Spring Fever in 1965. She also acted with Peter Noone - of beat group Herman's Hermits - in Hold On! and country star Hank Williams Jnr in A Time To Sing, and continued to work into the 2000s, most notably in the long-running ABC comedy series Coach and CBS show One Day At A Time.
