Blossoms will run away -
Cakes reign but a Day.
But Memory like Melody,
Is pink eternally

Nancy Kovack


Here are two dynamic songs performed by the great Jack Jones, chosen to enhance the beauty of cult actress Nancy Kovack.
Nancy Kovack (b. in 1935, Flint, Michigan) is an American former actress. She attended the University of Michigan at age 15 and graduated by 19. At the age of 20 she had won eight beauty titles. Kovack became interested in acting when she went to New York City to attend a wedding and became one of the Glea Girls for Jackie Gleason. She has appeared on a number of TV episodes, including "Star Trek", "Bewitched", "Batman", "I Dream of Jeannie", "Perry Mason", "The Man from U.N.C.L.E.", "Burke's Law" and the pilot episode of "Bewitched". In 1969 she was nominated for an Emmy for an appearance on "Mannix". As she gained fame, Kovack, alternately blonde and brunette, began to win roles in Hollywood movies, most notably as the high priestess Medea in "Jason and the Argonauts" (1963). She also had parts in "Strangers When We Meet" (1960), "Diary of a Madman" (1963) with Vincent Price, "The Outlaws Is Coming" (1965) with The Three Stooges, "Sylvia" (1965), "The Silencers" (1966), "Tarzan and the Valley of Gold" (1966), and the Elvis Presley film "Frankie and Johnny" (1966). Her last film role was in "Marooned" (1969), a science fiction drama. She appeared in the TV series "Ellery Queen" (1975) as "Monica Gray" and was credited as Nancy Mehta. In 1969 Kovack married Zubin Mehta, a conductor and later music director for the New York Philharmonic and the Los Angeles Philharmonic. Thereafter she dedicated herself to her marriage, giving up her stage and screen career. Kovack and Mehta maintain residences in Brentwood, California and Tuscany. Until 2006, the Mehtas spent some months of the year in residence in Munich, Germany, where Zubin Mehta was the Music Director of the Bavarian State Opera. Mehta is currently Music Director of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra and the Main Conductor for Valencia's opera house. He additionally participates in Florence's annual Maggio Musicale festival.
