Despite being married to Hollywood legend Max Baer Jr. (actor, director, producer), Joanne Kathleen Hill (former actress and dancer) remains a mystery to many. However, we’ve managed to gather some intriguing details about this enigmatic woman.
The world of Hollywood is filled with glitz, glamour, and a fair share of mystery. One such enigma is Joanne Kathleen Hill (age unknown, Actress), a former dancer who transitioned into acting and once shared her life with Max Baer Jr. (83, Actor, Comedian, Producer, and Director).
A career in dancing and acting
Before stepping into the world of acting, Joanne was a talented dancer. She even won the talent division of the Jr Miss America Pageant with her tap dancing skills. Her acting career kicked off in 1963 when she was cast as an extra in the Elvis Presley film ‘Roustabout.’
Love at first sight on Sunset Boulevard
Max Baer Jr. (best known for his role as “Jethro Bodine” on ‘The Beverly Hillbillies’) first encountered Joanne Hill in 1965. A billboard featuring her picture on Sunset Boulevard caught his eye, and the rest, as they say, is history. The couple tied the knot in 1966, but unfortunately, their union ended in 1971. The reason? A classic case of conflicting interests – Joanne’s focus on her career versus Max’s desire to start a family.

Post-divorce, Joanne moved to Beverly Hills and became George Burn’s neighbor. Despite being spotted together at various Hollywood events, the nature of their relationship remains undisclosed. Joanne has also kept herself away from social media platforms, choosing to live a life away from the public eye.
Currently operating in Hilton Head, Joanne is often spotted in her vintage outfits at charity events and volunteering at local animal shelters.
