Barrie Chase | 88 Years Old

Barrie Chase began making investments in the movies in the second part of the 1950s. For the next two decades, she was the last performer to gain popularity as a dancer. She was raised in California after her father got into the movie business, and she went to the Westlake School.

Her passion for dancing and athletics, including swimming, began at three. She eventually decided to pursue dancing as a vocation. But Chase’s introverted character stopped her from doing so with zeal. She appeared in the Goldwyn production of Hans Christian Andersen and the dream sequence in Daddy Long Legs. She retired from acting in the 1960s after marrying a wealthy medical entrepreneur, but she reappeared briefly in the late 1970s.
