Born 1946 in Manhattan, New York, American actress and former model Ann Turkel was photographed for American Vogue in the 1960s. Patrick Lichfield captured images of her on location in the United Kingdom, the Bahamas, and Italy during the early 1970s, and included them in his 1981 book The Most Beautiful Women.
After a brief appearance in the film Paper Lion (1968), her first major role was in the 1974 film, 99 and 44/100% Dead starring her future husband Richard Harris, and they acted together in The Cassandra Crossing (1976), Golden Rendezvous (1977) and Ravagers (1979).
Her other movie roles included Portrait of a Hitman (1979), with Jack Palance, and Humanoids from the Deep (1980), Deep Space (1988) and The Fear (1995). She also played the role of modeling agent and immortal Kristen in “Chivalry”, a season four episode of Highlander: The Series.
