Ann-Margret – 1941
A few years into building her career, the Swedish-American actress and singer Ann-Margret came to be referred to as the female version of Elvis Presley. Her sultry and lively contralto voice is what earned her that billing among her listeners.
As successful as her music career was, Ann-Margret’s work has endured more in the field of acting. Among her countless noteworthy works are Carnal Knowledge, Tommy, and Who Will Love My Children?—all of which earned her Golden Globe Awards. That’s not all! The 79-year-old widow of actor Roger Smith has even been nominated for multiple Oscars, Grammys, and Emmys.
