	Actors - Ginger Alden

Ginger Alden (born November 13, 1956 in Memphis Tennessee) is an American actress/model who is best known as the former fiancee of Elvis Presley.

Ginger Alden was twenty years old when she and her older sister Terry, the then Miss Tennessee beauty pageant winner, were introduced to Presley in 1976. They had met Presley earlier with their father when Ginger was 5 in 1961. Her father was Elvis's induction officer into the army. Presley had ended his roughly 3 and one half year relationship with Linda Thompson when he and Ginger Alden became involved. During his final televised performance in 1977, he introduced her to a national audience as his girlfriend and was planning to announce his engagement to Ginger on his last tour in August of 1977 that ended in Memphis, Tennessee. For years, Presley stayed up all night and slept during the day. As such, Alden was asleep in his bed at Graceland in the early afternoon of August 16, 1977 when she woke up to find his lifeless body in the bathroom ensuite. However, over the years she has refrained from excessive capitalizing of their relationship. Ginger went on to a modeling career for 15 years working in commercials, guest appearances on t.v. shows and during the 1986-87 season, she and Teri Hatcher were signed as regular cast members on the daytime soap opera, Capitol.

Many observers have noted how in life and in photographs, Ms. Alden bears a striking resemblance to Priscilla Beaulieu-Presley.
