She played Jane, girlfriend to Russell Johnson’s George, in the sci-fi horror film about an alien invasion from Creature from the Black Lagoon director Jack Arnold.
Hughes famously posed while screaming in a publicity photo for the movie (pictured above), which was later repurposed for a variety of advertising.

She also made guest appearances on the likes of “M*A*S*H,” “I Dream of Jeannie,” “Perry Mason,” and “Mission: Impossible.”
