Facts about Nevada Smith

Loni Anderson, best known for her role as the buxom blonde secretary "Jennifer Marlowe" on the long-running TV series WKRP in Cincinnati, can be seen in a bit part as a brunette. She's one of the dance hall girls who greets the cowboys upstairs at the hotel while they're cleaning up for a night on the town. She asks one of them, "What's your name? Walter? Hello, Walter."
The name "Nevada Smith" was the original inspiration for the name "Indiana Jones"; the Raiders of the Lost Ark character's name was originally "Indiana Smith". George Lucas named him "Indiana" after his dog, and "Smith" after this movie. But then it was changed to "Indiana Jones".
The role of Nevada Smith was originally created by Alan Ladd in The Carpetbaggers. A prequel highlighting the Smith character with Ladd was proposed, but the actor's untimely death at age 50 precluded that.
