- Pat Barrington was an extremely buxom, curvy and drop-dead gorgeous brunette topless dancer who popped up in a handful of enjoyably trashy softcore sexploitation features throughout the 1960s, often for producer Harry H. Novak's Boxoffice International Pictures and directed by William Rotsler.
She was born Patricia Annette Bray on 10/16/39 in Charlotte, NC. Her mother Willie Jo Bray had a fling with a local man named Claude Weidenhause and became pregnant at age 16. Weidenhause had already left by the time Barrington was born. Pat moved with her mother Willie Jo to Richmond, VA, when she was only two years old. Willie Jo married another man, Eugene Lee Barringer, but the marriage was short-lived and Pat found herself moving once again with her mother, this time to Hyattsville, MD. Willie Jo subsequently married a former Marine suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. Upset with the unstable situation at home, Pat left her mother and went out to fend for herself after her sophomore year in high school.
Pat relocated to Baltimore, MD, where she hooked up with an Italian-American mobster named Bob. She got married for the first time in the late 1950s but soon left him after the relationship became abusive. Bob helped Barrington get back on her feet by securing her a job as an exotic dancer. She then made a name for herself in Washington, DC, dancing under the name of "Vivian Storm". She caught the eye of local jazz musician Melvin Rees and moved into his abode back in Hyattsville in 1959. She moved down south with him in 1960. Alas, Rees was found guilty of murdering a Virginia family and was sentenced to life in prison.
Barrington moved to Los Angeles, CA, in 1962 and promptly got a job dancing at the prestigious nightclub The Classic Cat. She then decided to pursue a modeling career and subsequently started posing in spreads for various men's magazines as well as numerous commercial layouts. After an ill-advised foray into dancing in Las Vegas, she returned to Los Angeles and resumed her career as a model while still dancing on the side. She began auditioning for film work in the mid-'60s, achieving her greatest cult cinema fame as the female lead in Stephen C. Apostolof's unintentionally hilarious horror camp hoot Orgy of the Dead (1965), in which she also performs one of her patented steamy nude dances as the painted Gold Girl. Barrington had another rare substantial starring part as a bored housewife who works as a high-priced call girl in the seamy Agony of Love (1966). More often, though, the stunning and spectacularly alluring Pat was relegated to secondary roles as a go-go dancer in such delightfully down'-'n'-dirty low-grade fare as Lila (1968), The Girl with the Hungry Eyes (1966) and Sisters in Leather (1969). She appeared as herself in both the lurid mondo item Hedonistic Pleasures (1969) and Russ Meyer's blithely silly documentary Mondo Topless (1966). During this time she was briefly married to cinematographer Robert Caramico.
After calling it quits as an actress, Pat left Los Angeles and moved to New Jersey with a singer named Romeo. She soon found gainful employment dancing in clubs up and down the East Coast under the pseudonym Princess Jajah". In the mid-'70s she branched out into topless dancing and settled down in Cliffside Park, NJ, in 1980. She eventually dumped Romeo and became involved with a much younger man named Robert. Pat moved with Robert to Fort Lauderdale, FL, in 1984. She worked as a stripper using the name "Yvette" at assorted seedy clubs throughout Florida. After retiring from dancing in the early '90s, Barrington went on to work as a telemarketer. In her later years, she also helped local animal rescue groups (she was a lifelong lover of animals).
Pat Barrington died from lung cancer at age 74 on 9/1/2014. - Actor
