Bobby Sherman started out as an actor, but it didn’t take long for his other talents to shine. His first television appearance was on the show “Shindig!” and then he started leaning into music as well. His music career won him five gold albums and seven Top 40 hits.
When Bobby felt like his Hollywood career wasn’t fulfilling anymore, he went a different way. He retired from showbusiness and started a career as an EMT and a sheriff’s officer.
Mark Hamill
Forever Luke Skywalker, Mark Hamill actually started his way as a voice actor. He later landed roles in shows such as "The Texas Wheelers" and "General Hospital" in the 1970s, which gained him great popularity even before landing the role of Luke.
Luke won Hamill two Saturn Awards and an honorable place in American cultural history. He keeps acting to this day and has several newly announced acting projects to look forward to.
Vincent Van Patten
Son of the actor Dick Van Patten, Vincent was encouraged to take the spotlight at a young age, and he appeared in many commercials as a child. He soon transitioned into bigger roles, starring in numerous films and TV shows, the first of which was "Bonanza."
But Vincent is more than just an actor. He is also a talented tennis player with a well-established career and titles, as well as a successful poker player. So even though he doesn't act anymore, he has a plethora of other ways to make a living.
Iman
One of the biggest models in the seventies, Iman had a rags-to-riches story that's almost too hard to believe. Born in Somalia, Iman was a university student when a photographer spotted her. She moved to America and began modeling for "Vogue," and before long was a top runway star.
She dated Warren Beatty in the late seventies and had a daughter with basketball star Spencer Haywood. She met British rocker David Bowie in the early nineties, with which she had one daughter, and the two stayed together until Bowie passed away in 2016.
Diane von Furstenberg
Diane had it made: she married her college sweetheart Prince Egon von Furstenberg and became an official part of the German royal family (such as it is). But before long, she realized she wanted a career of her own and jumped into the fashion world in 1970, only a year after getting married.
Thanks to her newfound wealth and a pretty good amount of talent, von Furstenberg is now one of the most famous in the world, and its high-profile devotees include Victoria Beckham and Michelle Williams.
