Talk:Barbara Carrera

Birthday Correct?

All other sources stated her birthday as 31 December 1951... (IMDB, ....) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.181.112.133 (talk) 01:05, 4 February 2007 (UTC).

Her birthdate is generally listed as 1951, although she prefers 1953 and some sources say 1945 or 1947. Metallion (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 05:20, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

That is the quote from the NNDB page. The New York Times lists 1945. I wonder if she is listed in a "Who's Who"? It might be interesting to see what year they list.—RJH (talk) 20:43, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

IMDB is not an authoritative source for birth dates. We need something more definitive. Unfortunately the more reliable sources do not agree.—RJH (talk) 17:34, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

• • I find it somewhat interesting that a cursory search of the historical documents of U.S. Department of State lists nobody by the name of Louis Kingsbury as an Ambassador - EVER. Either he was NOT a "Chief of Mission" aka "Ambassador" or he was a minor deputy Ambassador and not notable enough to be referenced anywhere I can find inside the massive gummint bureaucratic files the US maintains.
  • Ambassadors to Nicaragua from 1938-1961 are:

1. Meredith Nicholson (1938-1941)
2. Pierre de Lagarde Boal (1941-1942)
3. James Bolton Stewart (1942-)
4. James Bolton Stewart (1943-1945)
5. William Fletcher Warren (1945-1947)
6. George Price Shaw (1948-1949)
7. Capus Miller Waynick (1949-1951)
8. Thomas Edward Whelan (1951-1961)

• • I would suggest that a reference to his being an Ambassador is a fictitious creation from Ms. Carrera's publicist and not factual. i4 aka IdioT.SavanT.i4 (talk) 04:53, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
    • That could be, or else the sources have it confused. The book titled A biographical handbook of Hispanics and United States film‎ says only that her father was "an American employee of the US embassy". Is there anything listed about diplomatic couriers?—RJH (talk) 16:24, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Science Fictology

The following text has been tagged as unsourced since at July.

At some point she was involved with scientology, but left shortly afterwards.

I could not find a reputable source for this; only off-repeated statements without proper backing. I'm moving it here until an authoritative reference can be found. Sorry if this is an issue.—RJH (talk) 19:06, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Spelling

A name is spelled variously as "Harden" and "Barden".

"Harden" seems to be the most frequently used and is mentioned by more reliable sources. Regards, RJH (talk) 18:43, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Find something better than that graphite sketch! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.158.147.89 (talk) 07:43, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

Do it yourself. RJH (talk) 17:20, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

What the fuck is with that picture????? HORRIBLE. --50.141.213.227 (talk) 02:20, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Very poor pencil drawing has been removed. I've looked for a public domain photograph, but have not found one. Doctormatt (talk) 03:58, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Playboy Appearance

She did not appear at all in the August, 1977 edition of Playboy, which I have. POV:Too bad.~~opusv5 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.156.43.8 (talk) 14:06, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

This IMDb list suggests multiple appearances in Playboy, although the nudity is unclear. I modified the article per your observation. Thanks. Regards, RJH (talk) 18:39, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

site of her 3rd wedding?

From the article: "They married on 16 March 1983, in Clark County, California, and later divorced."

There is no Clark County in California. There is a Clark County in Nevada, however.

Acc. to Wiki, there was a Clark settlement once in California. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clark,_California
