Angela Lansbury
Yet another link to Hollywood’s olden days, she’s star of film, TV, and screen. To give you an idea of the breadth of her career, she received an Oscar nomination for Gaslight, a film she shot in 1943. She’s best known among younger folks for the disturbingly pervasive reruns of Murder She Wrote, but not as many people know of her prominence in both dramatic and musical theater.
