Diane Brewster (March 11, 1931 – November 12, 1991) was an American television actress most noted for playing three distinctively different roles in television series of the 1950s and 1960s: confidence trickster Samantha Crawford in the western Maverick; pretty young second-grade teacher Miss Canfield in Leave It to Beaver; and doomed wife Helen Kimble in The Fugitive.
Brewster's father was R.R. Brewster, a trial lawyer in Missouri. She was born in Kansas City, Missouri, went to Shawnee Mission High School and studied liberal arts at the University of Kansas at Lawrence. Following her sophomore year at the university, she took a job as a secretary at a radio station.
Brewster was a direct descendant of Pilgrim Elder William Brewster, Governor of Plymouth Colony William Bradford, and 18th-century American poet and writer Martha Wadsworth Brewster.
She and her husband, Dr. Jabe Walker, an oral surgeon, had a son, Dean C. Walker (born March 29, 1960) and a daughter, Lynn D. Walker (born July 25, 1961). Both children were born in Los Angeles, California. Jabe Z. Walker died in February 2013.
