Garrett Parks said she died at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, most likely from an aortic aneurysm. Garrett was best known for playing Frank Sinatra's sweetheart in two MGM musicals in the 1940s. Her movie career was brief, partially because she was blacklisted due to her and her husband Larry Parks' past ties with the Communist Party.
