Kim Novak

Kim Novak became widely known for her role as both Madeleine Ester and Judy Barton on Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo and prominently became the leading woman of actors like Kirk Douglas and Frank Sinatra on Strangers When We Meet and Pal Joey. Her other film appearances include Picnic, Phffft, The Eddy Duchin Story, and more. In 1966, she became a semi-retired actress, citing the harsh realities of being subjected to criticisms, and focused more on her love of art and that passion still ignites in her veins.

Until now, it is evidently her true passion; on her website, you can see all of her artworks via its gallery. She may be retired permanently, but she isn’t retired from making paintings which are certainly considered as her alternative to her career as a celebrity so let us give her credit for having a solid plan B.
