Birthday: September 6, 1963

How You Know Her: Though she became something of a cult icon with her rampant skin-showing in highly regarded B-movies such as Private School (1983, where she out-hotted Phoebe Cates), Avenging Angel (1985) and Cheerleader Camp (1987), Russell had a brief retirement from acting beginning in the '90s. She made her return to film to play the sexy ex-wife of psycho killer John Kramer in the Saw series (starting with 2006's Saw III). She reprises her role as Jill Tuck in the next installment, Saw VI (premiering October 23), reminding us that watching her is something we should never take for granted!

Bareback Riding: Russell's most memorable movie scene, without a doubt, is the topless horse-riding sequence from Private School. Co-star Matthew Modine looks like he's about to have a stroke while watching her gallop away, and we can easily see why.
