Biographie

Carolyn Jones en 1958.

Elle rejoint le Pasadena Playhouse en 1947. Elle décroche un contrat avec la Paramount et tourne son premier film en 1952. L'année suivante, elle épouse le cinéaste Aaron Spelling, et se convertit au judaïsme en même temps. Ils se séparent en 1964, année de son rôle le plus marquant dans La Famille Addams. Après la fin de la série en 1966, sa carrière décline.

Énigmatique, elle s'impose dans les chefs-d'œuvre des genres marginalisés au sein de l'industrie : L'Homme au masque de cire, L'Invasion des profanateurs de sépultures. Puis elle jouera à la télévision dans La Famille Addams (qui en fait une icône) puis dans Batman et Wonder Woman.

Elle figure au premier rang dans des classiques (L'Ennemi public de Don Siegel avec Mickey Rooney et Bagarres au King Créole de Michael Curtiz avec Elvis Presley), puis apparaît dans Sept Ans de réflexion et L'Homme qui en savait trop, et rate (pour cause de maladie) le rôle dévolu à Donna Reed dans Tant qu'il y aura des hommes de Fred Zinneman — film couvert d'Oscars dont celui du meilleur second rôle féminin pour Reed.

Elle a travaillé avec Fritz Lang, Elia Kazan, Billy Wilder, Alfred Hitchcock et Frank Capra, devenue un second (ou troisième) rôle apprécié. On peut la voir dans Le Dernier Train de Gun Hill, western de Sturges avec Kirk Douglas et Anthony Quinn, ou dans La Conquête de l'Ouest, western collectif où elle joue l'épouse de George Peppard.

L'actrice continue sa carrière dans des séries telles que Le Virginien, Quincy, L'Homme de fer, L'Île fantastique. Tardivement, Capitol, qui se déroulait dans les coulisses de la vie politique à Washington, son dernier rôle, rivale d'Alexis Colby (Joan Collins) dans Dynastie et d'Angela Channing (Jane Wyman) dans Falcon Crest.

Atteinte d'un cancer du côlon, elle continue toutefois à jouer mais dans un fauteuil roulant. Le cancer se propage rapidement et Carolyn Jones décède le .
