“People said, ‘You’re not pretty enough,’ but she won two Oscars and raised two famous sons!”

Sally Field, born November 6, 1946, overcame demoralizing comments that she was “not pretty enough” for movies.
She made her Hollywood debut with the TV shows Gidget in 1965 and The Flying Nun in 1967.

The drama was Sally’s escape from a difficult upbringing that included her parents’ divorce and harsh disciplinary measures from her stepfather.

 

She began filming Gidget after graduating from high school, which paved the way for her famous portrayal of Sister Bertril.
