Who is June Lockhart’s daughter June Elizabeth? Family details explored as ‘Lost in Space’ actress dies at 100

June Lockhart, one of the last surviving actresses of Hollywood's Golden Age, has died at the age of 100.

TMZ broke the news that the iconic actress succumbed to natural causes at her home in Santa Monica, California, this week. She was surrounded by her daughter, June Elizabeth, and granddaughter, Christianna, at the time. Further details about her exact cause of death remain unclear.

Page Six has reported that her family is requesting that donations be made in her honor to The Actors Fund, International Hearing Dog, Inc., and ProPublica in lieu of flowers.

Fans have since begun wondering about her daughter, June Elizabeth Lockhart. An actress just like her mother, she was born on November 21, 1955, in New York City. She has a sister, Anne. The two were born during June Lockhart's first marriage to John F. Maloney. They were together from 1951 to 1959.

She has several film credits to her name, including Just Tell Me You Love Me (1978), Petticoat Junction (1963), and Carter Country (1977). However, not much else is known about her.

June Lockhart's life and legacy explored as actress recently said she had no regrets in her career:

June Lockhart was born on June 25, 1925. Her parents, Gene Lockhart and Kathleen Lockhart, were also actors. She began her career in acting in 1940, with her first credit being the movie "All This, and Heaven Too." She was just a teenager at the time.

Over the years, she amassed several film credits, including "Meet Me in St. Louis," "Sergeant York" and "T-Men" during the '40s. By the following decade, she made the switch to television, having famously worked on Lassie when it premiered in 1958. She stayed with the show for over 200 episodes, from 1958 to 1964.

Per TMZ, she boasted 2 stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, one for television and the other for movies. She also boasted an Emmy Nomination for her work on Lassie. In 1965, she began working on another show, Lost in Space, until 1968. This past June, around her 100th birthday, she told Boomer magazine of her roles:

“I applied my own maternal instinct in both of these shows. I am that lady who talks it through if there is a problem and comforts if someone is upset.”

When asked if she had any regrets across her eight-decade career, she said there were none. June Lockhart retired in 2021.

“My philosophy has always been the ‘right things’ will come to you,” she told the outlet. “I am lucky that I was able to work with so many talented actors and directors.”
