Raquel Welch defined feminine allure for an entire generation. With her sultry looks and lush figure, she was featured in movies, posters, and magazines. Born in the La Jolla area of San Diego, Ms. Welch gets her international appeal from her Bolivian father. She was voted "Fairest of the Fair" in 1957, and her name has been a byword for beauty ever since.

To many, Raquel Welch remains the ultimate pin-up girl and one of the dominant sex symbols of the 1960s. Her talents... more than match her statuesque bearing and timeless beauty. In recent interviews, Welch reveals a self-deprecating sense of humor, a shrewd grasp of business, and a commitment to social issues. Determined and resourceful, she has carefully crafted a career that defies expectations.

Raquel Welch aims for revenge! The west gets wilder when Raquel Welch saddles up in Hannie Caulder, a sagebrush saga that combines hard-hitting action with the rowdiness of three of the most wicked villains (played by Ernest Borgnine, Strother Martin and Jack Elam) ever to ride the lone prairie. Welch is Hannie, a woman sworn to vengeance after three thugs rape her and kill her husband. At first, she has more heart than know-how. But once bounty hunter Robert Culp teaches her how to shoot, Hannie straps on her .45 and sets out to put a few notches in its handle.
