Dietrich, Marlene (1901–1992)

German-born US actor and singer known for her femme fatale film roles and sophisticated style. She became a star in Der Blaue Engel/The Blue Angel (1930), directed by Josef von Sternberg, with whom she would collaborate throughout the 1930s. Her films include Morocco (1930), Blonde Venus (1932), The Devil is a Woman (1935), Destry Rides Again (1939), and Touch of Evil (1958).
