Cindi Wood

Cindi Wood was born as Moira Macneill in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. As a teenager on a beach trip to New Jersey, Moira saw the remaining stern of a boat that had sunk years earlier -- it was named "Cindi", and she immediately took that name, and kept it. Cindi's main profession was modeling, and her agent was Eileen Ford in New York in the 1950s and, after moving to California in the early 1960s, her agent was Nina Blanchard. A member of SAG/AFTRA, she appeared on more than 20 magazine covers, and in several television commercials. Her film credits were The Great Impostor (1960) (starring Tony Curtis) and The Hoodlum Priest (1961) (starring Don Murray). Cindi Wood died at her home in Malibu, California, in 1983, aged 52, following a long illness.
