Jane Seymour Biography

Actor

Photos ( See all 39 )

Name at birth: Joyce Penelope Wilhelmina Frankenberg

Originally a ballet dancer, Seymour made a small splash as Roger Moore's virginal tarot-telling girlfriend in the 1973 James Bond film Live and Let Die. Afterwards she built a career as a soft-focus romantic actress until her surprising success as a plucky frontier doc in the hit TV series Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman (1993-98).

Extra credit: Yes, Jane Seymour was also the name of Henry VIII's third wife. The two Janes are unrelated... Seymour married the actor and director James Keach in 1993; he is the brother of actor Stacy Keach.

Seymour appears with the dreamy Richard Chamberlain in our loop on Hunky Docs. She also joins action star Michelle Yeoh in the loop Ballet Castaways.
