Movie stars I loved as a kid - Anne Baxter

Brigitte Bardot came before Anne Baxter but I never fancied Bardot so I skipped her.

Anne Baxter (May 7, 1923 – December 12, 1985):
Baxter was born in Michigan City, Indiana to Kenneth Stuart Baxter and Catherine Wright; her maternal grandfather was the architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
...
Baxter co-starred with Tyrone Power and Gene Tierney in 1946's The Razor's Edge, for which she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. In 1950, she was chosen to co-star in All About Eve.
...
Baxter is also remembered for her role as the Egyptian princess Nefertiri opposite Charlton Heston's portrayal of Moses in Cecil B. DeMille's award winning The Ten Commandments (1956).
