Patsy Maxine Emanuel (1926-2018) was a gorgeous red-headed model who was raised in Liberty County, Texas to William and Ebbie Emanuel. After working in the shipyards as a welder during World War II, she posed for photographs with a notable photographer. Eventually, Joseph Pasternak of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer saw the photographs in The Vindicator and signed her after a successful screen test.
She appeared in three films titled The Gangster (1947), Green Dolphin Street (1947), and The Unfinished Dance (1947). After her contract expired, she returned to Liberty County, Texas where she'd spend her life. She married Dempsie Henley. They had five children together. She died on October 17, 2018.
"I'd rather be a good citizen in Liberty than have all the glamour that Hollywood could ever offer." - Pat Emanuel
