Young Actress Says No More Nudies For Her
By BOB THOMAS
Associated Press Writer
HOLLYWOOD (AP) — It's too
early to sight a trend, but here's
one actress of the "now" movies who declines to strip on the
screen any more.
She is Brenda Vaccaro, the
darkly
beautiful
Broadwaytrained actress who has appeared opposite Dustin Hoffman, Elliot Gould, Jon Voight

Voight in a fox stole. That's all.
"I've had it with the nudity
bit," said Brenda, who speaks

I seems ideal casting with the antiheroes of today's film market.
Among her recent roles was as
Elliot Scald's spouse in "I Love
My Wife."
