Barbara Parkins – Age 79

Immortalized as a slim brunette in the ‘60s movie Valley Of The Dolls, Barbara Parkins is still a beauty today at the age of 79. The Canadian-American actress, who’s also known for her role in the popular soap Peyton Place, has seemingly retired from acting and last appeared in a 1998 TV movie about writer Jacqueline Susann.

While not much is known about her current life, Parkins name still sometimes makes the news. In 2020, the writer Stephen Rebello published a book about the Valley Of The Dolls novel and film called Dolls! Dolls! Dolls!
