Happy Birthday to CDF alumna Barbara Shelley!

February 13, 1932 – January 4, 2021

Born Barbra Kowin in Marylebone, London, England; the English film and television actress boasts a career spanning 4 decades with over 100 acting credits on the big and small screen, including The Saint episode “The Covetous Headsman” (1962), The Avengers episodes “Dragonsfield” (1961) and “From Venus With Love” (1967), and Doctor Who episodes “Planet of Fire: Parts 1-4” (1984). Ms. Shelley is perhaps best remembered for her roles in the Hammer Horror films The Gorgon (1964), Rasputin, the Mad Monk (1966), Quatermass and the Pit (1967), and the CDF classic – DRACULA, PRINCE OF DARKNESS (1966)!
