Barbara Eden — 1931
When Barbara Eden made other’s wishes come true on her most popular project, I Dream of Jeannie, she didn’t realize she was making her own dreams come true as well. Like the pretty 2,000-year-old genie she was back then, Eden doesn’t seem to have aged one bit because we can all agree that she looks glorious at 89.
Eden had already had recurring roles in The Johnny Carson Show and How to Marry a Millionaire when she played Jeannie, the genie. However, that was the role that put her on the grid permanently. Despite being close to 90, she played Mrs. Claus on My Adventures with Santa in 2019.
