Deannie Best(1926-2000)

Second/third husband, Albert Pearlson, was an attorney. Among his clients were Frank Sinatra, Anna Kashfi, Jean Spangler, Edmund Purdom, Dorothy Arnold, and Mrs. Charles McKay, who sued Joan Crawford, claiming Crawford violated her right to privacy when she watched Mrs. McKay undergo "shock" treatments as preparation for her role in Possessed (1947) (Crawford denied she was present; the case was settled out of court for $200,000). Pearlson was engaged to Vi Athens before his first marriage to Best.
