Marsha Hunt | Born 1917

Marsha Hunt is the oldest actress from the Golden Years of Hollywood. She appeared in numerous films back in the days like Born to the West, Pride and Prejudice, and The Human Comedy. She was included on the Hollywood blacklist during the time of McCarthy that prompted her to become a humanitarian, focusing on homelessness, world hunger, and same-sex marriage.

To her credit, she has more than 40 films to her name, but she prefers to do supporting roles most of the time. Everyone wanted to work with her because of her radiant presence on set. Unfortunately, because of her name appearing on the blocklist, she lost work for some time. Today, at 104, Hunt still looks amazing and is not slowing down at all.
