looking at the two ends of Eva Marie Saint's extraordinary acting career, there are a few ways to define “first” and “last”:First professional screen work: Saint appeared on NBC's early live television program Campus Hoopla (1946–47), where she worked as a performer/commercial spokeswoman. This was during television's infancy. WikipediaFirst movie: On the Waterfront (1954) — Saint made her feature-film debut as Edie Doyle, opposite Marlon Brando. Remarkably, she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her very first movie. Turner Classic MoviesLast theatrical movie: Winter's Tale (2014) — she played the older Willa Penn, appearing at age 89. It is generally identified as her final newly produced theatrical film role. WikipediaHowever, she continued acting afterward. Her later credits include voice work as Katara in The Legend of Korra and podcast/audio drama performances. Her last credited acting performance appears to be the 2022 Radio Play Revival podcast, in which she voiced Osric Dane. People.comSo her professional screen/audio career effectively stretches from 1946 to 2022 — about 76 years. That's an astonishing run.
