Eva Marie Saint is a living legend.

The Oscar-winning actress, who turns 101 on Friday, July 4, 2025, has lived through several eras of Hollywood. Though she has retired from the industry, she had a role as recently as 2014, voicing Katara in the Nickelodeon animated series The Legend of Korra.

Ahead of hitting the big 100 in 2024, she told PEOPLE, “I certainly don’t feel 100 years old. I continue to take walks out in the fresh air, like watching baseball — especially the Los Angeles Dodgers, and enjoy time with my family and friends. A good life.”
