Blonde, radiantly beautiful British actress Patricia Roc had only a few months of stage experience when she was cast in her first film, Taras Bulba (1938). Her popularity peaked in the mid-'40s, thanks to such escapist film fare as Madonna of the Seven Moons (1944) and Jassy (1947). During this decade, hardly a week went by without Roc's face adorning the cover of at least one of the leading British fan magazines; she was frequently voted "best actress" by movie exhibitors, more a reflection of her box-office pull than her talent. Active in films in England and the Continent until 1960, Patricia Roc also starred in two American productions, Canyon Passage (1946) and The Man on the Eiffel Tower (1949).
