Tuesday has been too soon in almost everything she has done. Born in New York's Greenwich Village, she was supporting her family-her mother and an older brother and sister-as a child model when she was four. Her father had died when she was three. When she was twelve, she appeared in her first movie, Rock, Rock, Rock, a cheapie made in Brooklyn to cash in on the rock-'n'-roll craze of the '50s. Whatever its demerits, the film projected Tuesday as the archetypal nymphet, Shirley Temple with a leer. "The girl...
