The 1959 Miss Nevada crown was taken by Dawn Wells. In 1960, Wells would then enter the Atlantic City beauty pageant to represent Nevada. She then would go on to enter Hollywood, where she became part of The Roaring 20s within ABC’s portfolio, and The New Interns, the movie. Later, she would become a part of other leading series, like 77 Sunset Strip, Bonanza, The Joey Bishop Show, Cheyenne, and Maverick. Gilligan Island was grateful to have her join the cast as Mary Ann.
