No Binding. As New. Barbara Stanwyck was born Ruby Catherine Stevens on July 16, 1907, in Brooklyn, New York. She was the fifth ? and youngest ? child of Catherine Ann (née McPhee) (1870-1911) and Byron E. Stevens (1872-1919), working-class parents. Her father, of English descent, was a native of Lanesville, Massachusetts, and her mother, of Scottish descent, was an immigrant from Sydney, Nova Scotia. She made 38 films in 45 years and was once the highest-paid woman in the U.S. She stepped back into film for the 1964 Elvis Presley film Roustabout, in which she plays a carnival owner. Stanwyck starred as matriarch Victoria Barkley on The Big Valley television series later in her career. The western television series, The Big Valley, which was broadcast on ABC from 1965 to 1969, made her one of the most popular actresses on television, winning her another Emmy. In 1983, Stanwyck earned her third Emmy for The Thorn Birds.[20] In 1985 she made three guest appearances in the primetime soap opera Dynasty prior to the launch of its short-lived spin-off series, The Colbys, in which she starred alongside Charlton Heston, Stephanie Beacham, and Katharine Ross.
