21 October 56 she and fellow models Donna Hunter, 23, of Burbank, and Mary Erickson, 26, of Hollywood, file a $450 suit in Los Angeles municipal court charging they were fired as hostesses at the American Bankers Association convention because they refused to "entertain" delegates at night and "commit immoral acts with delegates." The girls were hired by Diebold, Inc., a vault-manufacturing firm, at $25-a-day plus expenses to decorate its booths at the Biltmore and Statler Hotels. The women say that after they refused to take on the extra-curricular duties, they were told not to report for work. Arlene's age is given as 22.

January 60 an underwater promo shot of her in local newspapers reads: "Dancer Arline Hunter is proving that nothing can stop a determined gal from putting on her lipstick. She's underwater at a hotel swimming pool in Hollywood, testing a new lipstick that won't smudge, smear or get in the hair, no matter how deep the water."
with fellow starlets Ziva Rodann, Nina Shipman, and Barbara Eden, she models Hollywood "Dip and Dance" swimsuits in local newspapers
Early January 61 is on hand to give a rewarding kiss to Bob Goalby, Los Angeles Golf Tournament winner. She’s "of 20th Century-Fox and tourney queen."
June 67 visits Burlington, North Carolina, to promote her White Lightnin' Road. "Arlene looks like Marilyn Monroe, critics say."
December 69 the local press reports: "Norman Siesser, of 351 E. Fifth St., Long Beach, encounters some difficulty in trying to mail a Christmas card to former actress Arlene Hunter, of Beverly Hills. Siesser took the card, 28 inches wide by 44 inches long, to the post office after the box refused to accept it but struck out there, too. He was told the card meets mailing regulations but the envelope put it three inches over the limit. Siesser says he'll deliver the message in person Wednesday."
