Elaine Hollingsworth (née Sterling) (May 18, 1928 – July 31, 2022), known by the stage name Sara Shane, was an American actress who starred in film and television in the 1950s and early 1960s.

She was born in Kirkwood, Missouri and raised in St. Louis before beginning her career as a face and hand model for cosmetic ads. She moved briefly to New York City before transporting herself to Hollywood, wherein she earned an MGM contract. She decorated a number of the studio's big musical pictures at that time under her real name, including parts in Easter Parade (1948) and Neptune's Daughter (1949) but found little room for advancement. Leaving MGM, she changed her moniker to Sara Shane and signed a one-year contract with Universal-International, where she was glimpsed in such films as Sign of the Pagan (1954) and Magnificent Obsession (1954). During this time, she married William Hollingsworth. They divorced in 1957 after 8 years.

She played Ethel Meridith in the original series episode "Wolf 359".
