      Betsy Blair

      Betsy Blair

      Highest Rated: 96% Marty (1955)

      Lowest Rated: 36% Betrayed (1988)

      Birthday: Dec 11, 1923

      Birthplace: Cliffside Park, New Jersey, USA

      Betsy Blair began her career on stage in the early 1940s and, after a break for marriage and motherhood with her first husband, dancing legend Gene Kelly, made her film debut in "The Guilt of Janet Ames" (1947). She went on to draw notice for her turn as a down-on-her-luck rich girl in "Another Part of the Forest" and as one of the mad women in "The Snake Pit" (both 1948). Blair, though, was perhaps best remembered for her sensitive portrayal of the plain schoolteacher who finds love with Ernest Borgnine in "Marty" (1955), for which she earned a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination.
