Adrienne Barbeau|75

Broadway star Adrienne Barbeau was born on June 11, 1945, in Sacramento, California. In the late 1960s, Barbeau moved to New York City and danced for the Mob. She is best credited for her performance as Rizzo in the 1970s musical Grease, where she received a Theatre World Award and a Tony Award. She was also highly noted for her TV acting credit as Carol Traynor of the six-year running sitcom Maude. Although Barbeau had to start her career by working for the mob as a go-go dancer, it opened the door for her to debut on Broadway in Fiddler on the Roof.

Despite a mix of feedback in her string of stage performances, she continued to work in more than 25 musicals. In the 90s, she was still making a name for herself by voice acting for animated films and series such as Catwoman on Batman: The Animated Series and Gotham Girls. Just this year, she also starred in the horror film, Unearth.
