Carole Cook – Died in 2023 at 99 Years Old – Sixteen Candles
Even though the 1980s film “Sixteen Candles” made American actress Carole Cook famous, her birthday cakes today feature far more than sixteen candles! Between 1956 and 2018, this seasoned Texas native earned 62 acting credits while working in the entertainment industry. Cook, who has been married to fellow American actor and writer Tom Troupe since 1964, gained most of her fame in the 1970s and 1980s, appearing in popular films like the action-thriller film “The Gauntlet” and the popular television show “Knight Rider.” In more recent years, she has starred in films like “A Very Sordid Wedding,” “Break a Hip,” and “Waiting in the Wings: Still Waiting.”

Tippi Hedren – 94-Years-Old, The Birds
Before becoming Alfred Hitchcock’s muse and the mother of actress Melanie Griffith, Tippi Hedren began her career as a model in Minnesota. By age 20, she had signed with the prestigious Eileen Ford Agency, and Hitchcock soon took notice of her work, casting her in major films like *Marnie* and *The Birds*. Hedren went on to appear in over 100 films and TV shows, including Charlie Chaplin’s final movie, *A Countess from Hong Kong*. Over the years, she built a net worth of $20 million. Although she took a break from acting to raise Griffith and advocate for animal rights, Hedren recently returned to the screen in films like *The Ghost and the Whale*.
