Too bad, she didn’t have a lot of roles but did great in The Shining.

She was a popular supporting actor in film. Not too many leads but lots of supporting work. At last count, I believe she's been in 27 films spanning from 1970 to 2023 and has been in TV episodes about as many times from 1973 to 1999, but too me she'll always be Wendy in The Shining.

RIP Shelley

She went through some rough times lately. You wouldn't recognize her if you saw her. I thought she was great in Popeye and the Heeeeres Johnny.
