Elizabeth Taylor

Elizabeth Taylor was known as the face of classic Hollywood throughout the 1960’s. This actress, humanitarian, and businesswoman is even considered the all-time seventh-greatest screen legend among female actresses. It is surprising to know that she only signed a short-term contract with Universal Pictures at the beginning of her career. She later moved on to MGM where she was given her breakthrough role in the movie National Velvet. This 1944 film made her one of the most famous teen actresses at the time. She also broke the record and made history for being paid $1 million for her iconic role in the movie Cleopatra.
