Who is Barbara Eden?
Barbara Jean Morehead was born on 23 August 1931, in Tucson, Arizona USA, and is an actress as well as a singer, best known for being the star of the sitcom entitled “I Dream of Jeannie” inwhich she plays the titular character.
Early Life and Education
Barbara’s parents divorced when she was young, and she later moved with her mother to San Francisco where her mother would remarry to a telephone lineman, so she grew up with a younger half-sister, in a family greatly affected by The Great Depression. It was during this time that she was taught by her mother how to sing, and during her teens she sang in local bands to supplement the family income. At the age of 16, she became a member of Actor’s Equity. After matriculating from Abraham Lincoln High School in 1949, she enrolled for theatre classes at the City College of San Francisco and stayed there for a year. She also took singing lessons at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and acting classes at the Elizabeth Holloway School of Theatre. During her time at City College, she was elected Miss San Francisco, and also entered the Miss California pageant. Her first television role would come in 1956, when she became a semi-regular on “The Johnny Carson Show”.
Television and Film Work
More projects started to come Eden’s way, including “The West Point Story”, “I Love Lucy”, “The Andy Griffith Show”, “Perry Mason”, as well as “The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson”. She later starred in the television series “How to Marry a Millionaire” which is based on the film of the same name, then after starring in a play with James Drury, she caught the attention of filmmakers who cast her in “From The Terrace”. She was later given a contract by 20th Century Fox, leading to minor roles in “Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?” and “The Wayward Girl”, then starred opposite Barry Coe and Gary Crosby in “A Private’s Affair”. In 1960, she co-starred with Elvis Presley in “Flaming Star”.
The following year, she had a supporting role in “Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea”, before starring in “The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm”. Two years later, she became a part of the production of “Five Weeks in a Balloon”, before getting the lead role in the comedy “Swingin’ Along”. Her last film with 20th Century Fox was in “The Yellow Canary”, then made guest appearances for other studios such as Universal, MGM, and Columbia.

Quotes
# | Quote |
---|---|
1 | [on Jeannie's pink outfit and how the NBC executives forbid her navel from being exposed] They became very strict about the navel...very strict about the pantaloons. They had to be very shadowed so you couldn't see my legs. |
2 | [The advice she's given towards parents after her son died from a heroin overdose] I'm telling them, 'talk to someone who has been through this, and seek help for your child right away'. If you treat this disease early, you can stop it. |
3 | [on her son's addiction to drugs, drug rehabilitation, and his death from heroin overdose] He won a lot of battles, but he lost his personal war. |
4 | On Jeannie: She's very easy to live with. Actually I think I'm more restricted by her now than when she was on the air, or 20 years after. I was just so busy. |
5 | Advice to present-day actors linked to a particular role: I would embrace the character, because it won't do any good if you don't. And another thing: Don't whine or talk trash about it. I don't think you ever demean to your public what you've done. You're insulting them if you demean your work. |
6 | Work makes me feel productive, as though I'm contributing something. I like being productive and feeling productive. |
7 | I've never stopped working. If you're active, you can appreciate what you did in the past, you don't feel like it's gone. |
8 | Out of all the actors I have worked with, I love working with Larry Hagman the most. We were very close and it was just a wonderful time. |
9 | If gentlemen prefer blondes then I'm a blonde that prefers gentlemen. |
10 | Every New Year's I resolve to have a better year than I had before. |
11 | I played the Marilyn Monroe role of "Loco" in How to Marry a Millionaire (1957), though I didn't consider myself as that kind of actress, I approached the role more as a character. |
12 | I don't know what I am doing from one moment to the next. I like that not knowing because it's always a surprise. You don't know what's around the corner, you know what role am I going to play next and who am I going to be working with. It's like opening a present. |
