The Sound of Music was just one element of a stellar film career for Julie Andrews, now 85, who won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Comedy or Musical for her role as the unruly nun and nanny. Some of her best-loved films include Thoroughly Modern Millie Millie, Star!, The Princess Diaries and Darling Lili. But for many fans his career was defined by his performance as stern widower Captain von Trapp in The Sound Of Music - a role he once dubbed 'a cardboard figure, humourless and one-dimensional'. Co-star Andrews, who played Maria Augusta von Trapp, the governess who won the captain's heart in the film, was already a household name after making her feature film debut a year earlier in Mary Poppins in 1964.She was studying speech therapy and philosophy at college when her mother arranged for her to audition for the Sound of Music. Afterwards she worked with Van Johnson on a pilot of a TV show, Take Her, She's Mine and went on to appear in Evening Primrose, a Stephen Sondheim musical. She quit Hollywood after marrying a dentist, Jay Brent (whom she divorced in 1991), to focus on raising her two daughters Jennifer and Emily, before becoming a successful interior designer. She died from complications related to dementia in September 2016, aged 73.
Aged three she appeared as Paul Newman's daughter in the film Somebody Up There Likes Me, and starred in seven seasons of the US TV series Make Room for Daddy. After The Sound of Music, she continued her acting career and starred in the TV series Lost in Space and Make Room for Granddaddy. But after having her two children - Jesse and Rebecca Gullion - she swapped acting for other artistic pursuits. She has been a photographer for 30 years and her work is displayed at her studio in Studio City, Los Angeles. Now 68, Angela has published several tomes on photography techniques. In 2019 she made a cameo appearance as Dr. Smith's mother, Sheila Harris, in the third episode of the second season of the 2018 Netflix re-imagined Lost In Space series.

Chase switched gears in college, earning a bachelor's and master's degree in geology and working as a software engineer. Now 70, he lives in Washington and is returning to wildlife and forestry work. He is married to Petra Maria, who was born in Hamburg, Germany and is a registered nurse.
