Hollywood Legends Who are Still Alive and Making Magic
Kim Novak – 88 Years Old
Kim Novak actually stumbled upon an acting career that made her famous. She was on a promotional tour with a refrigerator company when she came across an audition to be a movie extra. Then an agent picked her up, and things went in a completely different direction.
She ended up signing on with Columbia Pictures as their answer to Marilyn Monroe. She gave them much more than that, with acclaimed performances in Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo and starring in films alongside Frank Sinatra and Kirk Douglas. She didn’t stay long, though, and by 1966 went into retirement with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and two Golden Globes.
