Soleil Moon Frye – Gigi in The Liars’ Club (1993); Marcie in Pumpkinhead 2:  Blood Wings (1994);  Sharon Stewart in Twisted Love and Laura in Piranha (both 1995);  Kyra Thompson in I’ve Been Waiting For You (T, 1998).  Will be remembered as the title character in “Punky Brewster” et seq. (1984-88);  other extensive TV credits, including “Saved By The Bell” (1992) with Tiffani Thiessen; berth on “Sabrina The Teenage Witch” as Roxie King (2000-2003), with Melissa Joan Hart;  seems especially in demand for voicing in animated series, including “The Real Ghostbusters” (1987), “Tiny Toon Adventures” (1992), Zoey of the “Bratz” (2005), and had a berth on “The Proud Family” (2001-05) as another Zoey.  Almost got the role of Paige Matthews on “Charmed” in 2001, but it went to Rose McGowan.  Data: Born 8-6-76, Glendora, CA;  5’1”;  38DD-26-35, but had breast reduction surgery (Aww!) at age 15 that brought her down to 36C-24-34;  we’ll split the difference and call it VaVoom! Gold, as she is still young yet.  Has played both a witch-hunter (I’ve Been Waiting) and a witch’s best friend (“Sabrina”).  Name came from lyrics to a song in the musical ‘Annie Get Your Gun.’

Greta Garbo – title role in Anna Karenina (1935);  title role in Ninotchka (1940), a role later reprised by Cyd Charisse and Hildegarde Knef;  remarkable title role in Anna Christie (1931), later reprised for TV by Diane Cilento.   HMs for every other film, too many to list here—look it up!  Renowned for her Sphinx-like mystique, which she herself created and maintained with a skill that equalled her contemporaries FDR, Stalin, and Hitler.  Like Lillian Gish, her lifespan intersects with the lives of every other actress in this collection, from Bernhardt to Hilary Duff.  Data: Born 9-18-05, Stockholm, Sweden;  died 4-15-90, New York, NY;  5’7.5”;  35.5-28-33.5 according to Adrian, her designer at MGM;  once worked as a soap-latherer in a barbershop;  accused of doing nothing to help the Allies in WW2, but was later revealed to have carried secret messages for the Allies and to have helped unmask Nazi agents in Sweden;  shares with Diana Rigg and Theda Bara the distinction of being featured on a postage stamp (Sweden and USA, 2005).

Rebecca Gayheart – Lois in Scream 2 (1997), which also featured Heather Graham;  Brenda Bates in Urban Legend (1998); Julie Freeman in Jawbreaker (1999) along with Rose McGowan; Mary Newlie in From Dusk Till Dawn 3 (2000);  title role in Scarlett (T, 2006).  Bess Martin in Earth 2 et seq. (1994, 1995);  Clair Armstrong in Vanishing Son 1, 3, and 4 (T, 1994—she must have been out sick the week they were making 2);  appeared in “Sliders” (1996) before Kari Wuhrer joined;  did appear on “90210” with Tiffani Thiessen (1995);  voiced Medea (a character also played by Diana Rigg and Jolene Blalock) in “Hercules” episode ‘Jason and the Argonauts’ (1998) to which Heather Locklear also contributed;  berth on the short-lived “Dead Like Me” (2003) as Betty Rhomer.  Originally cast as Inara on “Firefly” (2002) but was replaced by Morena Baccarin after shooting began.  Data: Born 8-12-71, Hazard, KY;  5’8”;  34B-25-35; out of all the members of this collection who have wreaked havoc and mayhem onscreen, this pleasantly-named actress is the only one (to my knowledge) convicted of actually killing anyone, in a 2001 misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter case in which she struck a jaywalker.
