CYBILL SHEPHERD

Cybill Lynne Shepherd was one of the most sought-after teens during the 70’s both in the modeling and the acting scene. She’s part of the critically acclaimed box-office hit movie The Last Picture Show as Jacy Farrow, which she earned fame and a nomination for a Golden Globe Award for New Star of the Year. Since then, projects came in regularly, and she never need to take any loans to keep her finances afloat.

The actress is also a huge supporter of various civil rights movements, and she’s even one of the main benefactors of the National Civil Rights Museum. In 2009, she was honored to accept one of two National Ally for Equality awards by the Human Rights Campaign in Atlanta. Aside from that, she’s a prominent supporter of LGBTQ communities and has been an advocate for same-sex marriages.
