Irene Vernon

Irene Vernon (January 16, 1922April 21, 1998) was an American actress.

Vernon was born Irene Vergauwen in Mishawaka, Indiana. Her career began with small uncredited roles in 1940s movies. Vernon ended her movie career in 1952, but during the 1950s, she began performing television roles.

Throughout the early '50s, Vernon guest starred in shows such as Fireside Theatre, The Lone Ranger, Danger, Flight, and The Donna Reed Show. It wasn't until 1964 that Vernon got her most memorable role as Louise Tate on the hit television series "Bewitched". Vernon held the role until 1966. However, after writer Danny Arnold was fired from the series, the producers—actress Elizabeth Montgomery and Montgomery's husband, director William Asher—pressured Vernon to leave the show because of her friendship with Arnold (although the official reason given was that Vernon's husband was ill).Fact|date=February 2007

The role of Louise Tate was taken over by Kasey Rogers in a same character, different actor situation.

Irene Rosenberg (as she was known at the time of her death) died on April 21, 1998, in South Bend, Indiana at the age of 76.
