Her parents were Dr. and Mrs. Arthur V. Nilsson; her father taught anatomy at the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n- She began performing before age 4, doing radio work, talent contests, and entertaining troops during WWII. By age 8, she was already a prominent radio personality. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n- Her notable roles included:\n  - \u201cKathy Anderson,\u201d the younger daughter on *Father Knows Best* (radio version) ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n  - \u201cCookie,\u201d the Bumsteads\u2019 daughter in the radio version of *Blondie* ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n  - Other radio work: *The Jack Carson Show* (as Glory Mae), *Suspense*, *Luke Slaughter of Tombstone*, *Cavalcade of America*, *Have Gun, Will Travel*. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n- She also worked in film and television through the 1950s, with credits including *The Actress* (1953), *The Green-Eyed Blonde* (1957), and an episode of *Official Detective*. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## After *Father Knows Best* / Later Years\n\n- Norma Jean Nilsson\u2019s professional acting career appears to have ended around **1959**, according to her biography. That year marks her last credited work in radio/film. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n- *Father Knows Best* ran in its radio form until the mid-1950s and on television until 1960, but Norma Jean was only involved in the **radio incarnation**, which had mostly wrapped up by the time the show was on TV. She does **not** seem to have been part of the television cast. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father_Knows_Best?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## What\u2019s Known\u2014or Not Known\u2014Since Then\n\n- Despite her early prominence, **little is known publicly** about her life after the late 1950s. There are no solid records\u2014or widely reported interviews\u2014detailing her adult life, other careers she may have pursued, or her personal life after she left entertainment.  \n- Her IMDb page lists basic info and credits up through the late 1950s, with no more recent acting work. ([imdb.com](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0632288/?utm_source=openai))  \n- She is still listed in sources such as Wikipedia as being alive, with a birthdate of January 1, 1938. As far as records indicate, there is **no report of her death**. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can try digging deeper\u2014looking at archives or newspaper databases\u2014to see if there are any later interviews or details about Norma Jean after she stopped acting. Do you want me to do that?"

Here\u2019s a summary of what *is* known, and the gaps that remain.\n\n---\n\n## What We **Do Know**\n\nFrom reliable sources like Wikipedia and IMDb:\n\n- Norma Jean Nilsson was born January 1, 1938, in Hollywood, California. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n- Her acting and radio career spanned from about **1941 to 1959**. Her credits in radio, film, and television stopped around 1959. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n- She was notable for playing Kathy Anderson in the *radio* version of *Father Knows Best*, among many other roles throughout the 1940s and \u201950s. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## What We **Don\u2019t Know**\n\nHere are the areas where public information is lacking:\n\n- **Post-acting career**: No credible sources describe what Norma Jean Nilsson did after 1959\u2014whether she pursued another profession, got married, had children, or continued in public life in some other capacity.\n\n- **Later interviews or public appearances**: I found no verified interviews or media coverage featuring her after the late 1950s.\n\n- **Death or current status**: There are no records confirming her death. She is still listed in sources like Wikipedia as being alive, as of the last update. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norma_Jean_Nilsson?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Possible Reasons for the Lack of Information\n\n- After leaving acting at a young age, she may have chosen a private life, making it harder for public records or media to track her.\n\n- Records from mid-20th century child actors who stepped out of show business can be sparse, especially if they didn\u2019t continue in public or entertainment roles.\n\n- She may have married or changed her name, which can complicate searches unless those later names are documented in connection with her acting identity.\n\n---\n\nIf you like, I could try searching in newspapers archives (especially Los Angeles), public records (census, marriage, death), or genealogical databases to see if anything turns up under her name or possible married names. Would you prefer me to dig in that direction?"
