Born 1927 as Éva Márta Szőke Ivanovics in Budapest, Hungarian-British actress Eva Bartok began acting in films in 1950 and her last credited appearance was in 1966. She is best known for appearances in Blood and Black Lace, The Crimson Pirate, Operation Amsterdam, and Ten Thousand Bedrooms.
During the Second World War, a teenaged Bartok, the daughter of a Jewish father and a Catholic mother, was forced to marry Hungarian Nazi officer Géza Kovács; the marriage was annulled after the war on the grounds of coercion of a minor.
Eva Bartok had four other marriages, all of which ended in divorce, including her marriage to actor Curd Jürgens (1955–56). Her daughter Deana was born in 1957, shortly after the marriage to Jürgens ended. Three decades later, Bartok claimed Deana's biological father was actually Frank Sinatra, with whom she had a brief affair in 1956.
Bartok died in 1998 in London at the age of 71. These beautiful photos captured portrait of young Eva Bartok in the 1950s and 1960s.
