Educated at Iowa University, this blonde actress landed the title role in Otto Preminger's "Saint Joan (1957)" after a much-publicized contest involving some 18,000 hopefuls. The failure of that film and the only moderate success of her next, "Bonjour tristesse (1958)", combined to stall Seberg's career, until her role in Jean-Luc Godard's landmark feature, "À bout de souffle (1960)", brought her renewed international attention. Seberg gave a memorable performance as a schizophrenic in the title role of Robert Rossen's "Lilith (1964)" and was directed by husbands François Moreuil, in _Récréation, La (1960)_, and Romain Gary, in "Oiseaux vont mourir au Pérou, Les (1968)". Later in her life Seberg became involved in anti-war politics and was the target of an undercover campaign by the FBI to discredit her because of her association with several members of the Black Panther party. She was found dead under mysterious circumstances in a Paris suburb in 1979.  hide
