Cheryl Walker (August 1, 1918 – October 24, 1971) was an
American fashion model and actress.
Born in South Pasadena, California to Everett Dale and
Pauline S. Walker, Cheryl Walker won the 1938 Tournament of Roses pageant
leading to a brief career as a model and the beginning of a brief film career.
She appeared in small, uncredited roles in several films from 1938 until her
first substantial role in Chasing Trouble (1940) with Frankie Darro. She
briefly took the name Sharon Lee for the film Secrets of a Model (1940) which
provided her first starring role, before returning to minor roles. She was
Veronica Lake's "double" in the film Sullivan's Travels (1941), and
was the female lead in Shadows on the Sage (1942). She also was Claudette
Colbert's stand-in on No Time for Love. Her most substantial role was in Stage
Door Canteen (1943) in which she played a hostess at the canteen who meets and
falls in love with a serviceman. She continued appearing in films for the next
few years until her retirement in 1948.
