Debbie Reynolds
Debbie Reynolds
Debbie Reynolds has been in show business for more than 50 years. She got her start in beauty pageants before being discovered by a Warner Brothers film scout. The award-winning entertainer has starred in film, on stage and TV. She also founded The Thalians, which has raised millions for emotionally disturbed children. Reynolds recently opened the Hollywood Motion Picture Museum to display her extensive collection of movie memorabilia.
Carrie Fisher
Carrie Fisher
Carrie Fisher has come a long way since her role as Princess Leia in Star Wars. Although she's continued acting, she's also become one of the highest paid writers in Hollywood. A much sought-after "script doctor," her credits include Sister Act, Lethal Weapon 3 and the '97 Academy Awards show. She's also written several novels, including the semi-autobiographical Postcards from the Edge, which was made into a successful film, and her latest, the 'semi-official sequel,' The Best Awful There Is.
