Ann Margret

Ann was an accomplished singer, spry dancer, and peppy cheerleader at Winnetka, Illinois’ New Trier High School, and was born in 1941 in Sweden. She happily smiled at the cameras and the fans even before she was popular. In images such as Bye Bye Birdie, Carnal Intelligence, Grumpy Old Men, and The Cheap Detective, the starlet went on to act.
