Jayne Mansfield And Baby Mariska Hargitay

As I, George Brich, took this Valley Times photo, Mr. Hargitay asked Jayne, 'Don't you feel like Mother Goose?'
Both images I'm sharing today were featured on the front page of the Valley Times article, "The Two Lives of Jayne." Mariska Hargitay is now an actress, well known for her role as crime detective Olivia Benson on the NBC television drama series, "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit."

Jayne Mansfield was known in Hollywood as a blonde bombshell, but she was much more than that. She had an IQ of around 160 and spoke several languages.
Your photos with her family and baby Mariska are just wonderful. Thanks so much for posting them.

I wonder if Mariska was supported by her parents to enter show business or if they encouraged her to "entertain" other endeavors.
I'm also curious if Zoltan was a family name from either parent's side. It sounds like a villain from the Flash Gordon era.
