Sara Karloff, Boris Karloff’s only child, was born on her father’s 51st birthday. She says her father would be utterly amazed and gratified by the fan following he has today, and, “He was a very modest man and felt he was very lucky to be able to spend his life doing something he genuinely loved.” Ms. Karloff is widowed, has two grown sons and three grandchildren. She has lived in Rancho Mirage, CA since 1981. In 1993, following the death of her step-mother, Evelyn Karloff, Sara assumed the responsibility for the persona and licensing rights relating to her famous father and formed Karloff Enterprises. The company’s goal is to maintain a standard of excellence and appropriateness when the name or likeness of her father is used. Through the licensing process she has been able to make merchandise and collectibles available to her father’s fans.
