Jennifer ‘Jenny’ Atkins was born Jennifer Rivas in Australia in 1949. She was a model a producer, and a film and TV actress. At one time she was married to actor Ty Hardin [1930-2017]. She appeared in only one Spaghetti western as a circus girl in 1971’s “Drummer of Vengeance” which starred Hardin. The couple apparently met during the filming and married in 1971. Like most of Hardin’s eight marriages it didn’t last long, and the couple divorced in 1974. Jenny then married plastic surgeon Steven Zax [1930-2017] (1978-1982) and then George Brachmanski and is currently living in Queensland, Australia.

Jenny Atkins' westerns - actress:
You’re Jinxed Friend, You’ve Met Sacramento – 1970 (Maggie Thompson)
Drummer of Vengeance – 1971 (circus girl)
What's ironic about Jenny Atkins' two marriages is that both of her husbands died in 2017 at the age of 87. And one of them was none other than my favorite actor from the Western TV series, "Bronco". You heard that right, folks. Jenny Atkins was married to Ty Hardin, AKA Bronco Layne.
