Roberta Lynn Kupcinet Wiki: Salary, Married, Wedding, Spouse, Family
Karyn Kupcinet (March 6, 1941 – November 28, 1963) was an American stage, film and television actress. She was the only daughter of Chicago columnist and television personality Irv Kupcinet.Kupcinet had a brief acting career during the early 1960s. Six days after the JFK assassination, her body was found at her West Hollywood, California home. It has been theorized that Kupcinet's death, officially ruled a homicide, was connected to the assassination or was the result of an accidental fall. In the 1960s, Irv Kupcinet publicly dismissed the theories linking his daughter to the president's death. In 1992 The Today Show referred briefly to her alleged connection to the assassination, which prompted Kupcinet to describe the television broadcast as "an atrocious outrage" and "calumny." Karyn Kupcinet's murder remains officially unsolved.

# | Fact |

1 | Visited President Harry S. Truman in the White House as a child, accompanied by her parents and brother. |
2 | Was found strangled in her West Hollywood apartment. Her father, Chicago columnist Irv Kupcinet, believed he knew who did it but could never prove it. Speculation had it even linked to the JFK assassination. Mr. Kupcinet called such speculation "an atrocious outrage." He said his daughter didn't know the assassin(s). He said nobody ever told him to back off from investigating the assassination, and his daughter's killer was not part of any plans to silence a journalist. |
3 | During the last 24 hours of her life, Kupcinet had dinner with her actor-friend Mark Goddard and his wife. A year-and-a-half later, Goddard's career became very successful when he started playing the part of Major Don West on Lost in Space (1965). |
4 | Made her acting debut at age 13 in a Chicago production of "Anniversary Waltz.". |
5 | Attended Pine Manor College in Wellesley for a semester, then went to study acting at the Actor's Studio with Lee Strasberg in New York. |
6 | Allegedly used the name "Tammy Windsor" professionally for a short period of time, although this has been disputed. The first season of The Andy Griffith Show (1960), which is easy to access on DVD and on basic cable television, features a guest star named Tammy Windsor who does not resemble Kupcinet. The first billing for "Karyn Kupcinet" was in the Jerry Lewis comedy The Ladies Man (1961). She has a bit part as one of dozens of young ladies living in a boardinghouse. |
7 | Starred as teacher Annie Sullivan in a Laguna Beach summer theater production of "The Miracle Worker". |
8 | Her last on-screen appearance was in the Perry Mason (1957) episode, Perry Mason: The Case of the Capering Camera (1964). The episode aired on January 16, 1964, seven weeks after her still-unsolved murder. |
9 | Was romantically involved with actor Andrew Prine at the time of her murder. He was among a number of people, including two other actors, questioned by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and released. There never was an official suspect. That sheriff's department covered West Hollywood where the crime occurred. |
10 | In 1971, Irv and Essee Kupcinet founded the Karyn Kupcinet International School for Science as part of the Weizmann Institute of Science in their daughter's memory. |
11 | Born Roberta Kupcinet, she did not change her first name to Karyn until she was 20 years old. |
12 | The apartment where she died is located at 1227 1/2 North Sweetzer Avenue in West Hollywood, not far from where Dorothy Dandridge died a year-and-a-half later. |
13 | Sister of Jerry Kupcinet |
14 | Daughter of Irv Kupcinet |
15 | Karyn Kupcinet was murdered on Thanksgiving Day, 1963. The crime has never been solved. |
