JULIE NEWMAR

Julie Newmar is an all-rounder woman who has experience in business, acting, and modeling in Hollywood. This ballerina-actress was an archetype of seduction and appeal, which is why she is regarded as a bombshell. She cemented her status as an icon with her role as Catwoman in the original TV series Batman. She also became a powerhouse on TV with shows like Route 66, My Living Doll and Love, American Style.

It’s truly a shame that her TV works outweigh her movies in popularity, for her films deserve as much recognition. She starred in Mackenna’s Gold, Ghosts Can’t Do It, and Marriage-Go-Round. Her performance as Katrin Sveg In Marriage-Go-Round won her a Tony Award. If that wasn’t enough, she also has a pretty solid theater resume. She gave great stage presence in plays like Li’l Abner, Irma La Douce, and Once There Was a Russian. Newmar is thriving in fashion as she also used her investment money to patent a pantyhose and brassiere.
