One of the most strikingly beautiful and talented actresses at Republic. Thanks for posting this interview.

Wish I'd been able to meet her at a convention. I'm pretty much a shut-in now and all those 'B' movies and serials still bring lots of enjoyment. God bless, Dan :)

The "risque" line came from Sante Fe Saddlemates (1945) in which Sunset and Linda co-starred. Linda made six serials at Republic, one of which where she played a Zorro-like avenger. She left the screen to marry scriptwriter Sloan Nibley. She later became a English/dramatics teacher at Glendale Community College. She made a few appearances at Western film conventions until her death in 1997.
