Helena Carter was born into a family of Irish origin.
While she was studying English Literature at the Columbia University Graduate School--to get a teacher's diploma--she began to work as a model for the Conover modeling agency.
Renowned photographer Dick Isaacs shot some covers of her that garnered her some attention, and soon producer Leonard Goldstein of Universal Pictures offered her a contract.
She only made about a dozen pictures before leaving the business, her most famous one probably being the sci-fi classic Invaders from Mars (1953). IMDb Mini Biography By: A.
