Actor Born: March 19, 1936 in Berne, Switzerland Biography:Born in Switzerland to German parents, "Ursula Andress" first sought out film work while on a holiday to Rome (she later insisted that the producers came to her first). After a string of cheap films, Andress was brought to the U.S. as the New Dietrich, although the only things she actually had in common with Marlene Dietrich were German heritage and a magnificent legs. In 1957, Andress married American actor "John Derek", who supervised every aspect of her career in much the same way that he'd later mold "Bo Derek". The marriage ended unhappily, although the couple remained friends. She became an international sensation through her bikini-clad appearance as Honey Rider in the first James Bond movie "Dr. No" (1962), a role for which she was paid 10,000 dollars. Within a year, Andress was sharing billings with "Frank Sinatra" and "Dean Martin" in "Four for Texas", and "Elvis Presley" in "Fun in Acapulco"... Full Biography
