Who is Roberta Shore?

Roberta Jymme Schourop, better known as Roberta Shore, is an American actress and performer, most famous for her youthful television and movie roles in the 1950s and early 1960s.

Though never a Mouseketeer, Shore co-starred in several Walt Disney productions featuring the Mouseketeers, and thus came to be associated with them. She appeared as Annette Funicello's rival Laura Rogan in Annette's self-titled series, and as French-speaking Franceska in The Shaggy Dog.

Aside from Disney, Shore had a featured role in the 1959 screen version of Blue Denim, duetting with Warren Berlinger, and an uncredited cameo appearance in A Summer Place, as Sandra Dee's gossipy schoolmate Anne Talbert. Later she played Ricky Summers in the 1960 movie Because They're Young, and had another uncredited role, as Lorna in Stanley Kubrick's 1962 version of Lolita.

Shore's television credits include appearances on Playhouse 90, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, The Donna Reed Show, The Lawrence Welk Show, several Western series including Maverick, Wagon Train, The Tall Man, and Laramie, and regular roles on Father Knows Best, The New Bob Cummings Show and The Virginian.
