Betsy Blair
![Blair in ''[[Marty (film)|Marty]]'' (1955)](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5b/Betsy_Blair_in_Marty_trailer.jpg)
Blair pursued a career in entertainment from the age of eight, and as a child worked as an amateur dancer, performed on radio, and worked as a model, before joining the chorus of Billy Rose's ''Diamond Horseshoe'' in 1940. There she met Gene Kelly; they were married the following year, when she was age 17 and divorced sixteen years later in 1957.
After work in the theatre, Blair began her film career playing supporting roles in films such as ''A Double Life'' (1947) and ''Another Part of the Forest'' (1948). Her interest in Marxism led to an investigation by the House Un-American Activities Committee, and Blair was blacklisted for some time, but resumed her career with a critically acclaimed performance in ''Marty'' (1955), for which she was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.
She continued her career with regular theatre, film and television work, mainly in Europe, until the mid-1990s. Provided by Wikipedia
