"Tippi" was discovered by Hitchcock after he saw her in some cosmetics commercial, and proceeded to craft her to be his new "blonde" female lead like Grace Kelly. They would work together on THE BIRDS and MARNIE before their professional relationship ended.
You're right. In fact during the making of the film when Griffin was young Hitchcock gave her a doll of her mother in a box, though she was scared because it resembled a coffin. It's well known that Hitchcock became infatuated with some of the leads, especially Tippi Hedron.
