Martine Beswicke was born in Jamaica as Mary Rose Penso Beswick. From a very early age, it was her dream to be an actress. She moved to London in her early teens to begin a career in modelling. During the swinging sixties, Martine - a wild child from an early age - indulged in all that the city offered and various encounters helped her acting career to slowly take shape. In 1963, she was cast as the fighting gypsy girl in the James Bond film, From Russia with Love. Terence Young, the director, became her champion and in 1965 insisted she be cast as the island girl Paula, in Thunderball. This led to the career that she dreamed of. Hammer came calling to cast her in One Million Years BC, where she met and fell in love with the leading man, John Richardson. Eventually moving to Hollywood, her career continued apace.
ON MY WAY tells the fascinating story of a determined woman with an undeniable passion for life and people, which reads like a who's who of cinema and creativity from the 1960s well into the present century. Known as a Bond Girl and a Scream Queen, Martine Beswicke will continuously surprise fans, friends and movie lovers, with this enthralling autobiography.Featuring a foreword by screenwriter John Logan (Skyfall, SPECTRE, Gladiator, The Aviator)
