These Older Celebrities Are Still Alike and Kicking Hard
Nanette Newman – 88 Years Old
It’s amazing to see actors and actresses exploring their other talents, such as well-known author Nanette Newman. She has published thirty children’s books and six cookbooks and has even won an award for the Cookbook of the Year for her title, The Summer Cookbook.
But before all these successes and achievements in her writing career, Newman started out as a child star in a short film Here We Come Gathering: A Story of the Kentish Orchards in 1945. She eventually made her film debut in 1953 in the movie Personal Affair. With her one-of-a-kind beauty, she managed to charm writer and director Bryan Forbes, who became her husband in 1955. After getting married, the famous couple starred alongside each other in the 1960 film, The League of Gentlemen. In fact, Newman often made appearances in the movies Forbes worked on, including The Stepford Wives, until she stepped away from acting in the 1990s.
