Timeless Beauty: Celebs Who Captivated Hearts and Cameras in Their Prime!

Marlo Thomas – Born in 1937

Pioneering actress and social activist Marlo Thomas stole hearts as Ann Marie in “That Girl.” In that role, she depicted a single woman’s city life with dreams of Broadway, breaking stereotypes around women’s roles on TV. Her show, refusing to end with the typical marriage trope, sent a powerful message on female independence.

Her advocacy continued off-screen, promoting gender equality with the children’s project “Free to Be… You and Me” and as a co-founder of the Ms. Foundation for Women. Marlo’s efforts have been recognized with four Emmy Awards, a Grammy, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. In 2019, she was honored with a Hollywood Walk of Fame star.
