Easter is coming...

Elke Sommers and the Easter Bunny have been discussing how to ensure an equitable distribution of eggs this year. We look forward to seeing their plan put into action.



Meanwhile, we want to remind everyone that this is also the time of year when the Mitzi Gaynors hatch. Be on the lookout for this natural wonder that's rarely witnessed by human eyes!

Firearms Friday with Elke Sommer

Born in 1940, German actress Elke Sommer spent some of her teenage years in England, and since she was fluid in both German and English, she thought about training for a career as a diplomatic translator, but upon winning a beauty contest while vacationing in Italy, she turned firmly toward modeling and acting instead.


During the 1960s and into the 1970s, Sommer was a reigning European sex symbol and she soon conquered America as well. She appeared in all manner of films--from light farces and sex comedies, to thrillers and gory horror films; from low-budget quickies, to big-budget blockbusters--and all manner parts. As the 1970s came to a close and her screen career began to cool, Sommer found success on television. She also turned to writing and painting, and she has been enjoying success as a gallery artist for more than 40 years now. She continues to take a film role every now and then, and she is currently filming the forthcoming sci-fi film "PhonY".
