Miiko Taka | 96 Years Old

Born in July of 1925, Miiko Taka became one of Hollywood’s most celebrated actresses. As an actress, Taka is probably best known for appearing in the 1957 classic Sayonara, where she co-starred with fellow Hollywood icon Marlon Brando. Besides Sayonara, Taka also holds credit in other iconic Hollywood films such as The Art of Love, Cry for Happy, Operation Bottleneck, and many more.

Although she was able to put together a successful acting career, Miiko decided to permanently walk away from Hollywood in 1982. Her last film appearance came in the 1982 film The Challenge, where she played the role of Yoshida’s wife. It’s not clear if Miiko plans to make an acting comeback anytime soon, considering she’s already 96 years of age.
