One of the first female stage managers on Broadway, American actress Mary Elaine Steinbeck studied drama at the University of Texas, Austin where she met her first husband, Zachary Scott. The couple divorced in 1950, and within a week of their divorce, Elaine married John Steinbeck on December 28, 1950. A powerful force in John's life, Elaine accompanied him on his many international trips and the couple remained married until John's death in December 1968.
