Gloria Carlin, the Montreal-born actress who appeared in the 1987 film The Hanoi Hilton and several other projects for her husband, Oscar-nominated screenwriter Lionel Chetwynd, has died. She was 84. Born on February 20, 1942, Carlin started acting at the Montreal Children's Theatre and went on to attend Sir George Williams University, where she first met Chetwynd.
She left for New York to study acting with Peggy Feury at The Actors Studio and dance with Martha Graham but returned to her hometown, where she married Chetwynd in 1963. Carlin portrayed the wife of Tony Lo Bianco's broken-down rodeo rider in Goldenrod (1976) and worked alongside Jean-Pierre Aumont and Stacy Keach in Two Solitudes (1978).
