Erin O'Brien (January 17, 1934 – May 20, 2021) was an American actress and singer, active during the mid-twentieth century and best known as the leading lady of arguably the first made-for-TV movie,[citation needed] Girl on the Run, which also served as the pilot for the television series 77 Sunset Strip written by Roy Huggins and starring Efrem Zimbalist Jr., which played briefly in theaters before airing on television on October 10, 1958.

She was born in Hollywood, grew up in Long Beach, California, and was a graduate of St. Anthony High School.
At 15, O'Brien had a notable encounter singing to Helen Keller, who was staying at a nunnery in Pasadena: "The sister surrounding Keller's bed encouraged a frightened O'Brien to continue [singing]. Finally Keller reached up and held her hand to O'Brien's throat to feel the vibrato. Keller began crying. 'Afterward she kept kissing my hand again and again and again.'" Shortly after finishing high school, O'Brien sang with a choir directed by Walter Schumann. For three years, O'Brien appeared on a five-day-a-week television show hosted by Al Jarvis which also featured Betty White. After that, she toured as a singer and eventually became a winner on Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts on television, which led to a one-year contract on The Tonight Show.
O'Brien was the leading lady in episodes of such television shows as Bat Masterson with Gene Barry, Sugarfoot, Cheyenne with Clint Walker. Maverick with James Garner, episode: "Stage West", Colt .45, The Asphalt Jungle, Laramie, Tombstone Territory, Death Valley Days, and Perry Mason, and onscreen In Like Flint. She was deemed too short to star opposite Gene Kelly in Marjorie Morningstar; Natalie Wood was hired instead. O'Brien was a singer on The Frank Sinatra Show[? on CBS-TV (1950-1952), The Eddie Fisher Show on NBC-TV (1957-1959), and the syndicated The Liberace Show (1958-1959).? She entertained troops with Bob Hope, Jayne Mansfield, and Frances Langford in 1957 and was the face of advertising campaigns for Schlitz and later, Smirnoff.
According to the Internet Movie Database, O'Brien was a featured solo singer on The Steve Allen Show from 1956 to 1958. Her films include Onionhead with Andy Griffith (1958) and John Paul Jones with Robert Stack (1959). In 1958, O'Brien released an album, Songs From the Heart of Erin O'Brien on Coral Records.

She had two children by her second husband, Kanan Awni, whom she married twice. She died on May 20, 2021. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erin_O%27Brien_(actress)
