Jamie Lee Curtis - Wonderful Woman No. 111



Jamie Lee Curtis - Born 1958
American Actress, Inventor and Writer

Added to the album by Craig, A Wonderful Man


While I am lead to believe that Craig's reasons for adding Jamie Lee Curtis to the album was more for aesthetic reasons than anything else, she's a successful actress who has managed to have longevity in a career many struggle to maintain, so I think there are definitely other reasons to include her here.

In 1978, Jamie appeared in the cult horror film Halloween. She went on to appear in a number of other horror films, which lead to her being bestowed the media title of the Scream Queen. Jamie has appeared in films of many other genres, with major box-office hits such as A Fish Called Wanda, Trading Places and True Lies. She has been awarded numerous showbusiness acolades, including a BAFTA and a Golden Globe.

In 1993, Jamie published her first children's book When I Was Little: A Four-Year Old's Memoir of Her Youth and has since produced a further nine pieces of children's literature, one of which making the New York Times best-seller list and staying there for ten weeks.

A woman of many talents, Jamie is also the inventor of an adaptation of babies nappies that contain a moisture proof pocket containing wet wipes that can be taken out and used with one hand. Furthermore, she refused to allow companies to use the design of the invention until the use of biodegradable materials was initiated.

I think happiness comes from self-acceptance.

Just for Craig, I thought the video I should include with this addition of the blog should be something our male readers will find easy on the eye. Though, let's be clear, there is much more to this Wonderful Woman than the physical...
