Absolutely spot-on Sandy. Who do you have for us now ?
Maureen O'Hara was an Irish actress and singer, who became successful in Hollywood throughout the 1940s to 1960s. She was a natural redhead who was known for playing passionate but sensible heroines, often in Westerns and adventure films. She worked with director John Ford and longtime friend John Wayne on numerous occasions
Sharon Marie Tate Polanski (January 24, 1943 August 9, 1969) was an American actress and model. During the 1960s, she played small television roles before appearing in films and was regularly featured in fashion magazines as a model and cover girl. After receiving positive reviews for her comedic and dramatic acting performances, Tate was hailed as one of Hollywood's most promising newcomers.

That's her Sandy. Who are we looking for now ?
Gail Russell was born to George and Gladys (Barnet) Russell in Chicago and then moved to the Los Angeles area when she was a teenager. Her father was initially a musician but later worked for Lockheed Corporation. Before she ventured into acting, she had planned to be a commercial artist.[2] Her beauty saw her dubbed "the Hedy Lamarr of Santa Monica."[3]
Russell's beauty brought her to the attention of Paramount Pictures in 1942, and she signed a long-term contract with that studio when she was 18.[4] Although she was almost clinically shy and had no acting experience, Paramount had great expectations for her and employed an acting coach to work with her.[citation needed]
She later said, "suddenly there was this terrific amount of work for myself and no time to myself. It was that way for ten years." [5]
I know I've seen that Pic. before, but can't remember who it is. Maybe some-one else will.

OK first clue is a bit Cryptic. He has one thing in common with John Wayne even though he is not an actor. He was educated in France Germany and the UK. He joined the Royal Navy when he was 18 where he reached the rank of commander. He was born on the dining room table in villa on the Greek island of Corfu. We'll see how that goes as there are plenty of clues.

Yes the name is in the URL. When I save a photo I right click on it and select Properties then I select the Details tab at the top then at the bottom I select the link "Remove properties and personal information" then a new popup appears and "create a copy with all possible properties removed" is normally selected if not select it and click OK. A new copy without properties is created and I rename that copy "Who am I" It sounds complicated but if you write it down and do it a few times it's a piece of cake. You then have two copies one with the original name and one you have renamed to what you want.

Her father was initially a musician but later worked for Lockheed Corporation. Before she ventured into acting, she had planned to be a commercial artist.[2] Her beauty saw her dubbed "the Hedy Lamarr of Santa Monica."[3]
Career and life[edit]
Russell's beauty brought her to the attention of Paramount Pictures in 1942, and she signed a long-term contract with that studio when she was 18.[4] Although she was almost clinically shy and had no acting experience, Paramount had great expectations for her and employed an acting coach to work with her.[citation needed]
She later said, "suddenly there was this terrific amount of work for myself and no time to myself. It was that way for ten years." [5]
At the age of 19 she made her film debut in the 1943 film Henry Aldrich Gets Glamour. She also had a small part in Lady in the Dark (1943) and was meant to play a role in Henry Aldrich Haunts a House when, in March 1943, she was cast in a key role in The Uninvited (1944) with Ray Milland. Joan Mortimer played her role in Henry Aldrich instead.[6]

As such, he was the consort of the British monarch from her accession as queen on 6 February 1952 until his death in 2021, making him the longest-serving consort in history.
Philip was born in Greece, into the Greek and Danish royal families; his family was exiled from the country when he was eighteen months old.

During the Second World War, he served with distinction in the British Mediterranean and Pacific fleets.
In the summer of 1946, the King granted Philip permission to marry Elizabeth. Before the official announcement of their engagement in July 1947, Philip relinquished his Greek and Danish royal titles and styles, became a naturalised British subject, and adopted his maternal grandparents' surname Mountbatten. He married Elizabeth on 20 November 1947. The day prior to their wedding, the King granted Philip the style His Royal Highness. On the day of their wedding, he was additionally created Duke of Edinburgh, Earl of Merioneth, and Baron Greenwich. Philip left active military service when Elizabeth ascended the throne in 1952, having reached the rank of commander. In 1957, he was created a British prince. Philip had four children with Elizabeth: Charles, Prince of Wales; Anne, Princess Royal; Prince Andrew, Duke of York; and Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex. Through a British Order in Council issued in 1960, descendants of Philip and Elizabeth who do not bear royal titles or styles may use the surname Mountbatten-Windsor. The surname has also been used by members of the royal family who hold titles.
A sports enthusiast, Philip helped develop the equestrian event of carriage driving. He was a patron, president, or member of over 780 organisations, including the World Wide Fund for Nature, and served as chairman of The Duke of Edinburgh's Award, a youth awards program for people aged 14 to 24.[3] Philip is the longest-lived male member of the British royal family. He retired from his royal duties on 2 August 2017, aged 96, having completed 22,219 solo engagements and 5,493 speeches from 1952.[4] Philip died on 9 April 2021, two months before his 100th birthday.
