Jo Morrow Wiki: Salary, Married, Wedding, Spouse, Family
Jo Morrow (born November 1, 1939 in Cuero, Texas as Beverly Jo Morrow), is an American film actress. Through a "Be a Star" contest she won a film contract with 20th Century Fox (with Gary Cooper in Ten North Frederick) in 1958. After only one film with 20th Century-Fox she moved to Columbia Pictures, allegedly because a producer at 20th Century Fox tried to make a pass at her.At Columbia she made some ten films and a dozen TV series episodes between 1958 and 1963, the most notable being Our Man in Havana, in which she played Alec Guinness' daughter Milly.In 1963 she married Jack Barnett, songwriter for Jimmy Durante. The 1964 birth of a deaf daughter forced her to give up movies for motherhood. She had a brief comeback in a few exploitation films and TV series episodes in the 1970s.

Fact
1
Did not make herself too popular on the set of The 3 Worlds of Gulliver (1960) when she allegedly remarked that Alec Guinness and Noël Coward had recently co-starred with her in Our Man in Havana (1959). Peter Bull, who had a supporting part in the "Gulliver" film, attributed this remark (in his autobiographical book, "I Say - Look Here!") to an actress he referred to as "Marj Smith", but it was made pretty clear that he meant Morrow--there is no "Marj Smith" in the cast list of either film, and Morrow was the only American actress in both.
Met Fidel Castro in 1959 while making Our Man in Havana (1959) in Cuba. She told The Daily Mirror (London, UK) that he wanted to know the number of her hotel room so he could send flowers, but she never got them.
