#95 Stefanie Powers

Did you ever turn the TV on during the past 50 years? Well, you’ve probably seen Stefanie Powers then. She’s actually made more than 200 appearances on the little screen (though you may know her best for Hart to Hart).

She was one of those typical TV stars from another era who managed to portray sexiness and wholesomeness at the same time. I’m thinking actresses like Lori Saunders, Yvonne Craig, Barbara Eden …

Stefanie’s also done her fair share of work on the silver screen as well, though definitely not in any Citizen Kanes or Seven Samurais.

Oh yeah … She still looks incredible today.
