She has a page at IMDB with info on her life. It doesn't mention anything recent though.

Of all the actresses of the 40s and 50s Lizbeth Scott (I seem to recall she dropped the 'a' in her name) was the last I would guess. I saw her in a couple of film noir detective films in the early 50's and then in a Martin and Lewis comedy, Scared Stiff and finally in an Elvis Presley film, of all things. "Loving You," I think. She was very effective in the noir films. Like Gloria Graham, she had a kind of "frozen" upper lip that made her rather sexy, in addition to being just gorgeous. I think the Presley film was her last - although there was something in 70s or early 80s. I remember reading in a compilation book that there was a scandal in mid 50's about her sexual orientation. Too bad she did not keep working like Graham did into the 60s. Thanks for the memories.

In 1972, she made one final motion picture appearance in Pulp with Michael Caine and Mickey Rooney.
Since then, she has retreated from public view, and has declined all interview requests, probably because she does not wish to discuss her sexuality.
Lizabeth Scott has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for her contribution to Motion Pictures at 1624 Vine Street in Hollywood.

She's in hiding. In 1972, she made her final picture "Pulp" with Michael Caine and Mickey Rooney. (She also made "Loving You" in 1957 with Elvis Presley, his 2nd movie) Since her final picture in 1972, she since then has retreated from public view and has declined all interview requests, probably because she does not wish to discuss her sexuality. In 1955, she was sued for $250,000 regarding her private life (a lesbian). She never married or had children.
