(7 July 1970 - 1977) ( divorced)
In 1970 Shelley entered a whole new period of her life, marrying Bernard Sampson and finding a completely new career from her previous job selling cosmetics at a Foley`s mall. At that time film director Robert Altman was in town to film Brewster McCloud, spotted Shelley at a party, and picked the 5` 8" wide-eyed, toothy, pencil-thin girl out for the role of Suzanne, a Superdome tour guide. He turned out to be one of Shelley`s biggest fans, also casting her in his next film, McCabe and Mrs. Miller, starring Warren Beatty and Julie Christie. She didn`t work for three years, during which time she became divorced from her husband and moved to Los Angeles. After this brief pause in her movie career she found herslf working for Robert Altman again, but this time she was the star of the film, aquiring critical acclaim in Thieves Like Us.
