Jennifer Bassey Bio (Actress)
Emmy Nominated Jennifer Bassey became a contract player on ABC TV’s All My Children (1970) in the summer of 1998, after having portrayed borderline nymphomaniac "Marian Colby", since the early eighties. Her first job in entertainment was as a singing Playboy bunny in the very first Playboy Club. She left her bunny ears behind and was accepted into the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London. Three years later, she graduated with honors, finishing just below future Academy Award winner, Sir Anthony Hopkins. Eager to drop the “glamour” and prove she had the acting chops to play a transformational role she sought out a film that would call her to action. ‘Timeless’ arrived and so did Jennifer Bassey. Her performance is Oscar worthy.

Melanie (Sheila’s daughter) is naturally very passionate about this story being told. She had the unfortunate experience of seeing her mother suffer right before her eyes.
