Elaine Lee, the 1970s-era sex symbol and star of the iconic soap opera Number 96, died on Friday. She was 75.
Though she was best known for her role as the flamboyant fashion designer Vera Collins in Number 96, Lee's stage, film and television career spanned four decades.
Her other credits included A Country Practice, Glenview High, and the critically acclaimed miniseries Anzacs.
More recently she was seen in another high school drama, Heartbreak High, the medical drama All Saints and Seven's long-running soap Home and Away.
She also appeared regularly on the stage and, for a time, starred in a one-woman show, "Turn on the Heat," which was loosely based on the last two hours of Marilyn Monroe's life.
