Jill St. John – Diamonds Are Forever, Born in 1940

Actress Jill St. John appeared in the 1971 Bond film Diamonds Are Forever as Tiffany Case. St. John started her career at the age of six acting for radio and she made her screen debut at age nine in a 1949 made-for-TV Christmas movie. She continued getting smaller roles in TV shows and movies, including Thunder in the East and Sky King. By the time she was 16, she got into a 7-year contract with Universal Pictures in 1957 with a starting salary of $200 per week. However, she hasn’t appeared in anything notable since the Bond film and St. John has since been focussing her efforts on her love for cooking.
