Full Dyan Cannon Biography
Dyan Cannon (born Samille Diane Freisen on January 4, 1937) is a three-time Academy Award-nominated American film and television actress, director, screenwriter, editor, and producer.
Cannon was born in Tacoma, Washington to a Baptist father and a Jewish mother, Claire Portnoy, who had immigrated from Russia.She attended West Seattle High School.
On July 22, 1965, she married Cary Grant, becoming his fourth wife. They had one daughter, Jennifer (born February 26, 1966). However, the marriage was troubled from the beginning (Grant was 61 and Cannon was 28), and they separated within 18 months, with Cannon claiming that Grant spanked her for disobeying him. The divorce, finalized on March 21, 1968, was bitter and messy, and the custody disputes over their daughter went on for years.
Cannon can often be seen sitting courtside at Los Angeles Lakers games, as she has been a fan of the team for decades. She has become a born-again Christian, although she still considers herself to be of Jewish descent. |
