Roberta Jymme Schourop (better known as Roberta Shore) is a retired American actress and performer. She began her career at age ten, singing country-western songs at supermarket openings with Tex Williams, who invited her to join his weekly TV show from Knotts Berry Farm. As a teenager she appeared in Disney productions as well as other television series such as Father Knows Best and The Bob Cummings Show. But the most notable role for Roberta in a TV series was "Betsy Garth" on The Virginian (1962) for its first three seasons.
