Biography

Pert, blond Linda Gaye Scott enlivened a few iconic 1960s and 1970s sci-fi shows and movies. She had a particularly good line in exotic characters and is well remembered as Moth, a feisty sidekick of Frank Gorshin's Riddler in two episodes of Batman (1966), silver-clad alien Vama in The Green Hornet (1966) and -- topping the weirdness scale-- an alien space hippie (!) in Lost in Space (1965). On the big screen, she was Arlette, the robot prostitute who seduces Richard Benjamin in the classic futuristic sci-fi thriller Westworld (1973).

Linda was born in L.A., the daughter of advertising man Milton Bradley Scott and his wife, Jeanne Juliet Otto. Otto's mother was veteran Hollywood character actress Martha Wentworth, who, in the 1940s, was known as the 'Woman of a Hundred Voices'. Linda was raised in the Bel-Air neighborhood of Los Angeles, situated in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains. The family later moved to Encino in San Fernando Valley and then to Coldwater Canyon, near downtown Beverly Hills. She attended Emerson Junior High School in West Los Angeles.

On screen from 1961, Linda made regular guest appearances on television until her retirement from acting 22 years later. Now devoted to philanthropic pursuits, she has set up a rescue and adoption facility to care for homeless and abused animals.
