Faith Marie Domergue (; June 16, 1924, or 1925 – April 4, 1999) was an American film and television actress.

Domergue appeared in science-fiction and horror pictures, such as Cult of the Cobra, This Island Earth, It Came from Beneath the Sea, and The Atomic Man, all released in 1955, earning her a reputation as an early "scream queen". Domergue's later career consisted of B movies, television guest roles, and European productions. Read more on Wikipedia
