30 Baby Boomers We Absolutely Love

Sally Field

Sally Field and Guy Fieri in 80 For Brady.

We like her, we really like her. Sally Field, a two-time Best Actress Oscar winner for Norma Rae and Places in the Heart, became one of the first Baby Boomer icons with her run on Gidget, starting in 1965. The Flying Nun secured her status, and from there she went on to a wildly successful film career.

Roles in films from Sybil to Smokey and the Bandit to Mrs. Doubtfire to Forrest Gump proved her exceptional range and likability — heck, lovability — and she still scored laughs in this year’s 80 for Brady, which jokingly noted that she was a little younger than her octogenarian co-stars, all of whom were born pre-Baby Boom.
