Some of these are still really young and still might have great careers ahead of them. If you want actresses that quickly faded away after a few good/solid performances, how about:
Donna Wilkes https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0929160/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_1_nm_7_in_0_q_Donna%20Wilkes
Felice Schachter https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0769516/?ref_=tt_cst_t_4
Phoebe Cates https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000121/?ref_=tt_cst_t_6
Mary Wickes (Great and long career as a supporting actress, but she stole the show in just about every role she played) https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0926897/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_0_nm_8_in_0_q_Mary%20Wilkes
Hayley Mills https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001539/?ref_=tt_cst_t_1
There are several actresses whose careers ended because they were murdered or had terminal illnesses. Who knows what great things they might have gone on to do. Rebecca Schaeffer, Dominique Dunne, and Heather O'Rourke come immediately to mind.
