Actress whose career was cut short by well-publicized arrests for drunken driving; she was found dead at 36 in her apartment in 1961, surrounded by empty liquor bottles. Cause of death: an alcohol-induced heart attack. Lovely vintage matte-finish 8 x 10 portrait of the beautiful actress in a checked blouse, signed and inscribed in fountain pen “Bobby - How much money does one need?? Fondly, Gail Russell.” In fine condition. R&R COA.
