(b. Apr. 28, 1941, Valsjobyn, Sweden, as Ann Margret Olsson.)</FONT> A musical appearance on an Oscar broadcast (singing the title song from <I>Bachelor in Paradise</I> made Hollywood sit up and take notice of this Illinois-raised Swedish beauty. Her combination of squeaky-clean, all-American looks and uninhibited dancing led to a spate of fluffy roles, but she eventually matured into a talented dramatic actress as well. She first appeared on film in <U>Pocketful of Miracles</U> (1961) and <U>State Fair</U> (1962) in vapid but appealing ingenue roles. Her movie career picked up once she established her vibrant, youthful screen persona with the tuneful <U>Bye Bye Birdie</U> (1963) and <U>Viva Las Vegas</U> (1964, with Elvis Presley). She also achieved a kind of immortality in an animated guest appearance as "Ann-Margrock" on an episode of "The Flintstones." But with musicals already out, she floundered in various floozy roles throughout the 1960s, reaching a nadir of sorts in the campusrebellion drama <U>R.P.M</U> (1970). Daringly cast in Mike Nichols' frank drama <U>Carnal Knowledge</U> (1971), she sparkled as a pathetically needy sexpot and received an Academy Award nomination. (She was nominated again in 1975 for her role in the rock opera <I>Tommy</I> </div> <div> A 22-foot fall from a platform in 1972 nearly ended her career <I>and</I> her life, but she made a near-miraculous recovery. In 1978 she gave a mature, perfectly realized performance in <U>Magic</U> a psychothriller costarring Anthony Hopkins. Since then, she's settled into lusty-older-woman roles in middling-to-bad movies such as <U>Lookin' to Get Out</U> (1982), <U>Twice in a Lifetime</U> (1985), <U>A Tiger's Tale</U> (1987), <U>A New Life</U> (1988), <U>Newsies</U> (1992), and <U>Grumpy Old Men</U> (1993). She has had more success on the small screen, with fine work in TV movies like <U>Who Will Love My Children?</U> (1983) and <U>A Streetcar Named Desire</U> (1984) and the miniseries "The Two Mrs. Grenvilles" (1987), "Alex Haley's Queen" (1993) and "Scarlett" (1994, as Belle Watling). She published her autobiography in 1994. </div> <div> <I>Copyright ©1994 </I><I><U>Leonard Maltin</U></I><I>, used by arrangement with Signet, a division of Penguin Putnam, Inc.</I> </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <U>FILMOGRAPHY</U></div> <div> <A HREF="http://us.imdb.com/Title?0165832" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://us.imdb.com/Title?0165832"><U><U>Interstate 60 (2001)</U></U></A> </div> <div> <A HREF="http://us.imdb.com/Title?0254890" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://us.imdb.com/Title?0254890"><U><U>"Blonde" (2001) (mini)</U></U></A> TV Series ....
