Barbara Eden – 1931

Barbara Eden became everyone’s favorite when she played the genie in I Dream Of Jeannie. She started her career at a young age as her family tried to make do with what they had during the Great Depression. She first came out in public by singing the solo parts in a church choir. At 16, she joined the AEA of the Actor’s Equity Association. In 1956, she began her first stint as a semi-regular in The Johnny Carson Show. Her acting career took her places and she took part in various projects like The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, The West Point Story, and Highway Patrol, to name a few. She also wrote her autobiography that became a bestseller and must have contributed to her retirement plans. The only thing that didn’t go her way was the death of her only child Matthew.

Jacqueline White — 1922

Jacqueline never had a much-prolonged career, but the impact she had on her fans was immense. Being a UCLA student, her performance in Ah, Wilderness! led to her screen test and later on, her first appearance on the big screen with Song of Russia in 1944. Her portrayals in movies like The Narrow Margin and Crossfire are well-remembered until today. Her talent and beauty were mesmerizing, and she started ruling people’s hearts in no time. Though Jacqueline had all the traits of a superstar, she took up retirement when she was still in her hayday, and the 95-year-old now just eases up at her retirement home.

Johnny Crawford – 1946


Some people remember Johnny Crawford as one of the original “Mouseketeers” from Disney, but most remember him as Mark McCain, the son of Lucas McCain in the iconic western series, The Rifleman. At the age of only 13, Crawford had been nominated for an Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actor – which is quite impressive in and of itself. Sadly, Crawford is one of the only remaining cast members still alive from the show, but luckily for us, at the age of 72, he has no set plans to retire any time soon.
