Sherry Jackson (born
February 15,
1942 in
Wendell, Idaho,
USA) is an
American actress and former
child star. She made her film debut aged seven in the musical
You're My Everything, starring
Anne Baxter. She appeared in several of the
Ma and Pa Kettle movies during the
1950s as Susie Kettle, one of the titular couple's numerous children, and played
John Wayne's daughter in
Trouble Along the Way. She is probably best remembered today for her role as Terry Williams on
The Danny Thomas Show (AKA
Make Room for Daddy) from 1953â€"58. Fans of the original
Star Trek will recognize her as the android Andrea in the episode, "
What are Little Girls Made Of?"
When
Blake Edwards brought the popular Peter Gunn from the television screen to the movies, Sherry Jackson was filmed in a nude scene that appeared only in the international version of "Gunn", not in the US cut. Stills of the nude scene appeared in the August 1967 issue of
Playboy Magazine, in a pictorial entitled "Make Room For Sherry". The movie has never been released on VHS or DVD.
