Blackman started her career in 1947 in a small role in a film called "Fame Is The Spur" and the following year made a great little mystery thriller called "Daughter Of Darkness".
She made quite a few films after this including "The Glass Tomb" and "A Night To Remember". However, international fame came to her when she got the role of Catherine Gale in the TV series "The Avengers" and she never looked back.
In 1964 she was Pussy Galore in "Goldfinger" and that role has been her most remembered role to this day. She also had a great role the previous year as Hara in the classic "Jason & the Argonauts".I will never forget her black leather outfit from "The Avengers" however.
A very beautiful woman who shined very nicely on the big screen and the small screen. Blackman died on April 6th at the age of 94.
