ALI MACGRAW | 82

American actress Ali MacGraw was on her heyday in the late 1960s and 1970s. Her breakthrough role in the 1969 film Goodbye, Columbus earned her a Golden Globe Award. MacGraw gained an international profile when she was voted the top female box office star in the world in the year 1972. But did you know that she used to be a photographic assistant at Harper’s Bazaar magazine for six years before she began her Hollywood career?

She may no longer appear on screen today, but being a bankable star for decades must have secured her a huge amount of investment money. Aside from being a great film actress, MacGraw also made her debut in Broadway theater in 2006. She took part in the drama Festen, which means The Celebration, by playing a role of a dysfunctional matriarch. In 2016, MacGraw and her former co-star in Love Story, Ryan O’Neal, reunited when they both took part in a staging of A.R. Gurney’s Love Letters.
