KATHARINE ROSS

Katharine Ross was born on January 29, 1940, in Los Angeles, California, while her father, Dudley Ross, was serving in the Navy. Her mother, Katherine Mullen, hailed from Indiana. After her family settled in Walnut Creek, Ross graduated from Las Lomas High School. She rose to fame during the 1960s and 1970s, becoming one of Hollywood’s most celebrated actresses. Ross is far from ordinary, having earned multiple accolades, including two Golden Globes for Best New Starring Actress and Best Supporting Actress, as well as Saturn Awards for Best Actress.

Ross is perhaps best known for her iconic lead role in the horror classic The Stepford Wives. In her personal life, she married actor Sam Elliott in May 1984, just four months before the birth of their only child, daughter Cleo Rose Elliott. Now 83, Ross has yet to announce her retirement and continues to grace the screen, most recently appearing alongside her husband in the film The Hero. With a net worth of $5 million, Ross is financially secure and far from the worries of bankruptcy. Her enduring talent and legacy ensure she remains a beloved figure in Hollywood.
