Susan Cabot (born Harriet Pearl Shapiro, 1927-86) was an American film and television actress.
1927–1946: Early life
Cabot was born Harriet Pearl Shapiro in Boston, Massachusetts, on July 9, 1927. Cabot's mother Elizabeth was institutionalized, leaving Cabot orphanaged, in an early life full of turmoil; after her father abandoned their children. She was raised in eight foster homes over the course of her childhood in the Bronx, the city's borough. Cabot suffered with emotional and sexual abuse while in foster care, which caused severe post-traumatic stress disorder.
Cabot attended high school in Manhattan and became an illustrator of children's books. She supplemented her income by performing at the Village Barn club in Manhattan. Though she was still a youth, she married her first husband, artist Martin Sacker, on July 30, 1944 in Washington, D.C., while still a student. Sacker was a childhood friend, and the union gave Cabot the opportunity to leave foster care.
Cabot made her film debut in Twentieth Century Fox's film noir Kiss of Death (1947), which was shot in New York, playing a part as a restaurant patron. She was then discovered performing at the Village Barn by a talent hunter for Columbia Pictures, who filmed her in On the Isle of Samoa (1950). Cabot was introduced to further Hollywood roles after he agreed to a Universal Pictures contract. The 1951 Western Tomahawk was her first film with the studio. Cabot divorced Sacker in the same year and was later romantically linked with King Hussein of Jordan for many years.
Cabot appeared in a number of Western and Arabian-themed films, including On the Isle of Samoa and Tomahawk, as a lead, such as The Battle at Almanzo Pass and Son of Ali Baba (all 1952). She appeared in two more Westerns, Gunsmoke and Ride Clear of Diablo in 1953.
Cabot was dissatisfied with her film opportunities, and she demanded to be released from her job in 1954. She returned to New York and resurrectled her stage career with a role in Harold Robbins' A Stone for Danny Fisher's Leonard Kantor-directed, Washington, DC-based production. Cabot studied acting with Sanford Meisner in New York and then went on to pursue a stage career, appearing in a brief run of the musical Shangri-La in Boston in 1959.
Cabot returned to Los Angeles and began filmmaking in the late 1950s: Carnival Rock, Sorority Girl, The Viking Women, and the Sea Serpent (all 1957), War of the Satellites, and Machine-Gun Kelly (both 1958). She appeared in the Western Fort Massacre in the same year as Joel McCrea. Cabot's last film role was in Corman's horror film The Wasp Woman (1959). Cabot described Corman's job as "complete mad." It's like a European movie, although she said Corman was "some sort of maverick..." "He's very bright and fast-thinking."
In 1964, Cabot bore her only child, a boy. She married Michael Roman in 1968, with whom she raised her son Timothy Scott Roman, before divorcing in 1983.
Cabot suffered from depression and suicide in the last years of her life, and she was exposed to a number of irrational, powerful fears. She was under the custody of a licensed psychologist, but the psychologist discovered her so ill and ill that the sessions became "emotionally draining." Cabot's interior was strewn to care for herself; the interior of her house was strewn of years of garbage; and spoiled food was everywhere. Cabot's mental stability had deteriorated sharply in late 1986. Despite the squalor of the house's interior, Cabot maintained an "adequate" income despite resigning from acting, owing in large part to real estate investments and her obsession with vintage cars, which she regularly bought, restored, and resold.

Cabot suffered with depression and suicidal thoughts in the last three years of her life, and she was exposed to a variety of irrational, frightening fears. She was under the custody of a licensed psychologist, but the psychologist discovered her so ill and sick that the sessions became "emotionally draining." Cabot's interior was cluttered with years of garbage, and spoiled food lay everywhere; she became increasingly unable to care for herself. Cabot's mental stability deteriorated dramatically in late 1986.
