Early lifeWynn, who grew up in Forest Hills, New York, is descended from a line of performers. She is the granddaughter of Bertie Black, a musician in vaudeville, and her father, Ray Hickey, was a song-and-dance performer in vaudeville. Her early jobs included modeling, working in a department store, and being a page at La Guardia Field. Outside of work, she won a variety of talent contests. She is of Irish descent. [2] CareerShe began performing under her birth name at New York's Copacabana nightclub at 17.[3] She was tested for the lead in From Here to Eternity, but Donna Reed won the role.[2] In 1954, she adopted the stage name of May Wynn[4] after she played a character of that name in The Caine Mutiny. Wynn later was cast as the lead actress in the 1956 feature films The Man Is Armed and The White Squaw, and in the Jack Webb-created NBC television series, Noah's Ark, in which she played opposite Paul Burke and Victor Rodman. In 1959, she guest-starred on Perry Mason as Donna Sherwood in "The Case of the Glittering Goldfish".{{cn|date=August 2017}} Wynn worked in real estate after leaving acting, and in 1989 began work as a part-time aide with Our Lady Queen of Angels Catholic School in Newport Beach, California. In January 2018, Wynn, now known as Donna Custer, was feted by the school on her 90th birthday. A Los Angeles Times profile said that she "now uses her experience to help students at Our Lady Queen of Angels build confidence during her after-school public speaking classes," and still receives fan mail.[5] Personal lifeOn October 14, 1956, in Quartzsite, Arizona,[2] she and actor Jack Kelly, whom she played opposite in They Rode West, Taming Sutton's Gal and Hong Kong Affair, wed. They divorced in 1964.[6]{{dead link|date=March 2019}} She was married, secondly, to Jack W. Custer, from 1968–1979. That union also ended in divorce.{{cn|date=March 2019}} Selected filmography
