Biografía completa
Brooke Mills was an American actress and dancer who gained recognition in the late 1960s and 1970s, primarily known for her roles in cult cinema and television. Born Dolores Ann Williams on January 17, 1949, in St. Joseph, Missouri, she transitioned into the entertainment industry and adopted her stage name during the height of the exploitation film era.
Her most memorable performance came in the 1971 women-in-prison classic The Big Doll House, directed by Jack Hill. In the film, she portrayed Harrad, a volatile and tragic heroin addict whose animated, "whacked-out" performance became a standout element of the cult hit. Following this success, she continued to work within the genre, appearing in films like the horror-drama Dream No Evil (1970) and the cult comedy The Student Teachers (1973).
Beyond the big screen, Mills was a frequent guest star on popular television series of the era. Her TV credits include appearances on iconic shows such as Mission: Impossible, The Mod Squad, Police Story, and Marcus Welby, M.D. Known for her distinctive energy and screen presence, she remained active in Hollywood until 1977. Today, she is remembered by cinephiles for her contributions to the vibrant grindhouse and independent film scene of the 1970s.
