Jane Russell-
After a career co-starring next to Hollywood royalty like Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra and Groucho Marx, screen siren Jane Russell passed away on February 28, 2011, at the age of 89. Holding her own on the silver screen for almost 30 years, Russell was a key player in the transformation of female movie characters from buttoned up, virginal ladies to strong, sexy and sometimes even scandalous women.
