TINA LOUISE, 86 YEARS OLD
Tina Louise has appeared in a number of film and television projects but is most well-known for her portrayal of the character Ginger Grant in the US sitcom Gilligan’s Island. What you might not know is that Tina Louise actually burst onto the entertainment scene through her Broadway performances, and more interestingly, although she has taken a step back from acting, she is an active member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences as well as a lifetime member of the Actors Studio. Louise has also published a number of books, including children’s books. She is a literacy and academic advocate, and volunteers as a tutor for New York City children with a non-profit organization, Learning Leaders, stating that when young students gain literary skills they gain a whole lot more too, such as “confidence, self-determination, and proof of their own potential”. What an inspirational woman!

JOYCE RANDOLPH, 96 YEARS OLD
Actors and viewers were similarly disappointed when the television show Honeymooners was canceled after airing only one season, but despite this, one season was enough for the stars of the show to make their mark. Today Joyce Randolph is the only remaining living star of the Honeymooners quartet. After performing in the show, Randolph went on to act in a number of television shows as well as film, as well as several Broadway performances.
