Sexy Sharon Tate made just a few films during her brief career, including Don't Make Waves (1967; with Tony Curtis and Dave Draper), Eye of the Devil (1967; with Deborah Kerr), my personal favorite Valley of the Dolls (1967; with Susan Hayward and Patty Duke), and The Wrecking Crew (1969; with Dean Martin and Tina Louise). Tate was only 26 years old when she was murdered in August 1969. Beverly Hillbillies fans will recall Tate from her recurring role as Janet Trego from 1963 to 1965.

Williams married sexploitation producer Russ Meyer, and Williams was then featured in Meyer's Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (1970) and The Seven Minutes (1971).

Esther Williams
Before her film career, Esther Williams was a U.S. Olympics hopeful for the 1940 games. However, the games were cancelled because of World War II. Instead, Williams decided to use her swimming talents in Billy Rose's Aquacade; she was spotted by a talent scout and signed with MGM in the early 1940s. She made a big splash in such films as Bathing Beauty (1944) and Duchess of Idaho (1950). But when musical spectacles fell out of favor with the moviegoing public, Williams' career waned. She made a few 'B' films (such as The Unguarded Moment in 1956) before settling down with third husband Fernando Lamas. Williams recently made another big splash with her autobiography The Million Dollar Mermaid, which raised eyebrows upon its release in 1999.

Lana Wood
Sexy Lana Wood is the younger sister of actress Natalie Wood; good looks and talent seem to run in the family. Lana Wood's first screen appearance came in her big sister's 1956 film The Searchers. By the mid 1960s, Wood was starring in films such as The Girls on the Beach (1965; with Lori Saunders and Aron Kincaid) and also had a role on TV's Peyton Place (see the above right photo). Although Wood has acted in many films and TV series, she's probably best known as Bond-girl Plenty O'Toole in Diamonds Are Forever (1971). In the early 1980s, Wood walked away from acting to become an agent.
