Biography

Mitchum was born in Charleston, South Carolina, to James Thomas Mitchum and Ann Harriet Gunderson. Unlike her younger brothers Robert and John, who were employed full time in the film industry, Julie Mitchum acted in only a handful of productions between 1947 and 1959.

Perhaps Mitchum's most notable role was her final film appearance as that of Ruth Bridgers in the 1959 William Castle "campy supernatural horror" film House on Haunted Hill, in which she co-starred with Vincent Price. She also had an uncredited bit part as a slave in The Ten Commandments as well as The High and the Mighty with John Wayne.

Mitchum was also a musician, singing and playing piano in night clubs. During World War II, she entertained military personnel overseas.[1] In the early 1950s, she had her own program on KLAC-TV in Los Angeles.[2]

In 2003, at age 88, Mitchum died of Alzheimer's disease in Sun City, Arizona.
