Happy Holidays (Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's). See if we can get some girls in.
There are "rules" for this game the eight years since it started.
Recall, with respect, for us 10 or so "die-hard" players of the game ) and for any casual observers/ new people who might know the girl, we use the the honor system and its voluntary to follow the "rules".
1. Its supposed to be a fun diversion .. emphasis on "fun" .. that a few of our "non-gear head" family members and friends like to play along too. And they are usually good at it. Better than most of us it seems.
2. These womens' "politics" is not really relevant .. like 'em, hate 'em is a personal choice but that tends not to have anything to do with what they looked like as youngsters. Please, also no need to shame/dis them/tear them down if you don't like their looks or something like that.
3. When we are OP's, we tend to pick them given their exposure in popular print/digital media and/or in nationally-recognized music/entertainment/news venues. Sometimes they are known for "cheesecake", sometimes they are famous for other "newsworthy" reasons other than the that.
4. Clues and pics. That's how we I/D them. We can also "google" their pics directly and find them with NO other work, but that's "cheating" so to speak. Nobody will know that was done, unless you admit that's what you did. Fine, but just don't spoil it for others who choose to do it the hard way.
5. If you figure out who she is, please consider waiting until the OP ends the game before you reveal the answer. You can just indicate "got it" to help OP decide whether to give more clues or end it early.
Also, this gives everybody who wants the time to take a shot at it. Then, people sometimes talk about the process they went through at the end .. they "legged it out", or just "cheated", to ID the lady.
6. Can't/don't feel like sleuthing it out? Cool. Lotta room under the "rock.
Again, it's not a competition, nothing to "win", so there's no need to be "first" to the I/D the girl.
Here's the game.
Age 77 now. Actor. Pasadena California girl.
Started on television in the mid 1960's (wholesome, good girl roles), transitioned to a variety of other characters/roles in movies in the early 1980's, award winning (Emmy, Oscar, SAG, HW of F) achievements over a 60 year career to date.
Still working in TV and the big screen in roles playing older characters (grandmothers, for example) given her real-life age. Her biggest years were the 1980's 1990's, and early 2000's,
Though they didn't marry, her most famous squeeze was a bandit.
Pic below. Age 18, as a high school senior in 1964. Nearly 80 now - same face with usual tells. Eyes and smile.
Answer in 2-3 days, or sooner if it turns out a lotta people get her.
