Sharon Tate

 spectacled birthday


American actress and model Sharon Tate was born in 1943. The wife of director Roman Polanski was considered a style icon of the Swinging Sixties.


"Sharon Tate? Of course I knew her. I met her in France last year. Delicious and beguiling. Sharon had such style. I could tell she was splendid but, even more, intelligent. A rare girl, who read a lot. I wanted to meet her again in California." — Truman Capote, 1969.
