Q: What happened to the beautiful British actress Sharon Gurney? — R.S., Youngstown, Ohio

A: Sharon Gurney Rhodes was born in 1950. She began her acting career in the late 1960s on the London stage and later moved on to television; she also appeared in a few films. In 1970, she married Simon Gough, with whom she later co-starred in “The Corpse.” By the mid-’70s, she retired from acting. Although I could not find any official reason for her retirement, the fact that she had four children early on in her marriage makes me believe she preferred to stay at home and take care of her family. The last I heard, she was living in Norfolk, England.
