Dolores Fuller dies at 88; actress dated director Ed Wood. Years after starring in her boyfriend's low-budget films 'Glen or Glenda' and 'Jail Bait,' Fuller became something of a cult icon. She later said she didn't know Wood was a cross-dresser when they started dating. She also co-wrote several Elvis Presley movie songs, such as "Rock-a-Hula Baby" for Presley's 1961 movie "Blue Hawaii," and for other Presley movies such as "Kid Galahad," "It Happened at the World's Fair," "Fun in Acapulco" and "Spinout" — as well as co-writing "Someone to Tell it To," recorded by Nat King Cole, and "Losers Weepers" recorded by Peggy Lee. Fuller also founded a record company, launched Johnny Rivers' recording career and served as a talent manager.
