Bo Derek’s Formative Years
Before she was known as Bo Derek, Mary Cathleen Collins was born on November 20, 1956, in Long Beach, California. Working-class parents reared Mary in a conventional American home. Her mother was a cosmetics artist, while her father was a sales executive. When Mary was a teenager, she was very interested in two things. She loved horses and was first and foremost a passionate horsewoman. She would proudly display her talents as she competed in numerous contests. She loved performing as well. She chose to enroll in acting classes in order to hone such skills.
Bo made an appearance in the 1977 film Orca. A large killer whale was seen biting off her leg in this Jaws-like movie. Her real ascent to fame, however, was primarily credited to Blake Edwards’ 1979 film “10.” Her distinctive blond braided hair began to stick out at this stage. After this one, she didn’t pursue a career in action-packed, risk-taking films. Among these were the movies “Ghosts Can’t Do It” (1990), “Bolero” (1984), and “Tarzan, The Ape Man” (1981).
