Ruby Neilam Salvador Adams (born 1932), also known as Neile Adams, is a Filipina-American actress, singer, and dancer who appeared in more than 20 films and television series between 1952 and 1991.
Early life and family
Adams was born in Manila in 1932, the niece of Enrique Iglesias' maternal grandfather José Arrastia. According to reports, she never met her father. Carmen "Miami" Salvador's mother was a Spanish and German descendant from a hula dancer. Adams became a spy for the Philippine resistance in her early teens during World War II, delivering messages between guerrilla factions. During the island's Allied liberation, she was later wounded by shrapnel. In 1948, she came to Connecticut and attended Rosemary Hall, a private school in Connecticut. She then went to New York to study dance, where she was given a scholarship to the Katherine Dunham School of Dance in New York. She became known as Neile Adams in order to prevent typecasting based on her name.
Personal life
In 1956, Adams met and married American film and television actor Steve McQueen. The couple had two children together, Terry Leslie McQueen (1959–1998), and Chad McQueen, born in 1960. In 1972, the couple announced a divorce. She is the grandmother of actor Steven R. McQueen. Alvin Toffel, a political campaign manager and president of the Norton Simon Museum, married her before Toffel's death in 2005.
Career
In 1958, producer George Abbott offered Adams a part in the Broadway production of Damn Yankees. She was unable to participate because the Versailles Club would not release her from her dancer role. Kismet and The Pajama Game are among her Broadway credits. She appeared in Broadway Bound at The Grand opposite Paul Muni. She married then-struggling actor Steve McQueen four months after they met in 1956 while filming MGM's This Could Be the Night (1957), where she was under contract. In 1958, Adams and Vivian Blaine opened the Tropicana Hotel in Las Vegas.
Women in Chains (1972), Fuzz (1972), So Long, Blue Boy (1973), Chu Chu (1981), and Buddy Buddy (1981). The Perry Como Show, two Bob Hope Christmas specials, The Eddie Fisher Show, The Patrice Munsel Exhibition, The Pat Boone Show, and The Hollywood Palace are among her television credits. Her dramatic television appearances include a 1960 episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents, titled "Man from the South," starring her husband and Peter Lorre. Two more Alfred Hitchcock episodes were followed by two more: a half-hour show directed by Arthur Hiller, "One Grave Too Many," and an Alfred Hitchcock Hour episode titled "Ten Minutes From Now." Man From U.N.C.L.E., The Rockford Files, The Bionic Woman, Fantasy Island, and Vega$ were among the many television series she appeared on.
