In the world of television magic, one name shines brightly: Elizabeth Montgomery. You might know her best as Samantha Stevens, the enchanting witch from the classic TV show, Bewitched.

Elizabeth Montgomery was born into a family of actors on April 15, 1933, in Los Angeles, California. Acting was practically in her blood, and she began her career at a young age, appearing in both movies and TV shows.

But it was her role as Samantha Stevens that truly made her a household name. Bewitched was a beloved sitcom that aired from 1964 to 1972. In the show, Montgomery played Samantha, a kind-hearted witch who tries to live a normal life with her mortal husband, Darrin, played by actor Dick York (and later Dick Sargent).
