Ann-Margret | Born: 1941

Ann-Margret’s first passion was for dancing. Being quite a natural and a fast learner, she eventually had the chance to appear in shows such as Breakfast Club and Amateur Hour. A few years later, she added two other talents to her skill set: acting and singing.

Her professional career started around the 1960s. Along with landing her debut acting credit in Pocketful of Miracles, Ann-Margret also released her first album titled And Here She Is: Ann-Margret. Suffice to say, these were just the first steps she took for her rise to stardom. Through the years, the actress has made quite a name for herself under the spotlight. Along with garnering widespread praise for her songs, Ann-Margret is also regarded for her performance in projects such as Tommy, Grumpier Old Men, Bye Bye Birdie, and a more recent film, 2017’s Going in Style. With a career spanning around six decades at this point, she has also received plenty of awards, including six Emmys and two Oscars.
