EP 301 - Legendary Actress Ann-Margret

She is one of the most famous actresses that has ever graced the silver screen. She continues her career into the 21st century with no signs of slowing down. 

 

In 1961, her single "I Just Don't Understand" charted in the Top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 Charts and her acting debut followed the same year as Bette Davis' daughter in Frank Capra's Pocketful of Miracles. She appeared in the musical, State Fair a year later with Pat Boone before her breakthrough in 1963, with Bye Bye Birdie and Viva Las Vegas opposite Elvis Presley, she then became a Top 10 Box Office movie star.

 

Many of you know her from films such a Carnal Knowledge with Jack Nicholson, Tommy with Roger Daultry and Grumpy Old Men with Walter Matthau and Jack Lemon. And one of my favorites, The Kominsky Method with Alan Arkin and Michael Douglas.

 

She has just released her first album in 30 years, a rock and roll collection of duets called Born to be Wild and she keeps that reputation going by still riding her motorcycle. 

 

And she has debuted her signature fragrance, the limited edition Ann-Margret perfume, benefiting the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund.
