Full Biography
Verna Harvey is a British actress and producer who rose to prominence in the early 1970s with a series of roles in notable cult films and dramas. Born on April 5, 1952, in London, England, she established herself as a versatile performer capable of bringing depth to both psychological thrillers and period pieces.
She is perhaps best remembered for her role as Flora in the 1971 horror-thriller The Nightcomers, starring alongside Marlon Brando, and for her performance in the 1973 film Assassin. In Assassin, she played the character known simply as "The Girl," providing a crucial human element to the cold, clinical world of Ian Hendry's hitman protagonist. Her performance was noted for its quiet intensity, capturing the isolation of two strangers crossing paths under dark circumstances.
During the same period, Harvey appeared in the Western Chato's Land (1972) and the coming-of-age drama That'll Be the Day (1973). While her screen career was relatively brief, her contributions to British cinema during this era remain well-regarded by fans of 70s genre filmmaking. In her personal life, she is married to Bryan Gindoff.
