Beverly Elaine Aadland was born on September 16, 1942, in Hollywood, California. She entered the entertainment industry at a young age, making her film debut in "Death of a Salesman" in 1951.

As a teenager, she gained significant attention for her role in the film "Cuban Rebel Girls" in 1959, where she co-starred with the legendary actor Errol Flynn. Her relationship with Flynn, which began when she was just 15, was highly publicized and controversial. Flynn's sudden death in 1959, with Aadland by his side, added to the notoriety of their relationship.

Her career in Hollywood was relatively brief, spanning from 1951 to 1959. Despite her short career, she appeared in several notable films, including "South Pacific" in 1958 and "The Red Skelton Show" in 1959.

Her performances were well-received, but her acting career was overshadowed by her personal life and her relationship with Flynn. After Flynn's death, her life took a tumultuous turn. In 1960, her then-boyfriend William Stanciu died in her apartment after being shot during a struggle between the two, leading to her becoming a ward of the court for a year.

Her personal life was marked by multiple marriages and legal issues. She was married three times, first to Maurice Jose de Leon from 1961 to 1964, then to Joseph E. McDonald from 1967 to 1969, and finally to Ronald Fisher in 1969, with whom she had a daughter.

Despite the challenges she faced, she remained a resilient figure. She passed away on January 5, 2010, in Lancaster, California, due to complications from diabetes and congestive heart failure.

Some of her best-known films include "South Pacific," where she played a nurse in the Thanksgiving show, and "Cuban Rebel Girls," where she portrayed Beverly Woods.
