	Actors - Dawn Addams

Dawn Addams (September 21, 1930-May 7, 1985) was a glamorous leading lady in motion pictures who frequently played decorous roles in unremarkable movies.

She was born Victoria Dawn Addams in Felixstowe, England, daughter of Captain James Ramage Addams. Her mother died when she was young, and she spent her early life in Calcutta, India.

In 1951 Dawn starred with Peter Lawford in T for Terror. She embarked on a USO tour in 1953 to entertain troops in Korea.

She married Don Vittorio Massimo, Principe di Roccasecca dei Volsci, an Italian prince, on April 29, 1954. Charles Chaplin and his wife Oona attended their wedding. The marriage ended in 1971. They had one son: Stefano, Principe i Roccasecca dei Volsci, born January 10, 1955, who became a photographer.

In 1966, Dawn appeared in The Cat and The Canary along with actor Michael Howard. That March she gave birth to a second son, Noel Shawn Patrick Addams, and refused to name the father. Italian industrialist Vieri Calamal claimed paternity, but Dawn later named Michael Howard as Noel's father, and declared that they planned to marry. However, her young son Noel died of bronchial pneumonia in November 1966.

She quit film-making in the early 1980's after appearing on several television programs.

She died in London, England.
