PAULA PRENTISS

Paula Prentiss will always be remembered for her fierce looks. She might appear intimidating at first glance, but Paula is one of the top comediennes in the industry during her time. The actress received numerous accolades for her comedic performances in Bachelor in Paradise, The Honeymoon Machine, and Where the Boys Are. Prentiss co-starred with her husband Richard Benjamin in the years 1067-1968.

The couple appeared in the CBS sitcom He & She, which earned her a nomination for Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. She isn’t a one-note performer, however, and showed off her versatility in the Stepford Wives.

Her career has spanned for three decades, and despite being cast in minor roles for films, Paula has made plenty of investment money to keep pursuing what she loves. Still actively acting, she even joined the cast of 2016’s I Am The Pretty Thing That Lives in This House.
