Born in the Catskill Mountains, New York, the “Mullholland Falls” star is probably best known for the lead female part in the musical fantasy adventure alongside the late David Bowie in the “Labyrinth” in 1986 produced by “Star Wars” legend George Lucas. The story, about a teenage girl who has to go on an adventure to find her baby brother who’s been kidnapped by the Goblin king, has become a cult classic. (RELATED: Celebrate National Selfie Day With The Hottest Selfies On Instagram [SLIDESHOW])
