Memorable in Andy Warhol's Bad and Forbidden Zone she often popped up in cult/psychotronic stuff in the 80s.

SuSu was conceived in Hawaii and born in San Francisco to a storybook couple named Jack and Jill. Her mother, a fading British beauty who was raised in a British convent, had been in the Diplomatic Corps in China and the Philippines in the ’30s and ’40s, had lost five brothers in the RAF during Word War II, and was reportedly never the same after she was forced to shoot her eight prize Irish setters when the Japanese invaded Manila.

I have a picture someplace of Patrick McGoohan evidently trying to direct her in "Catch My Soul". It must have been like trying to herd cats... She certainly lived a life of her own.
