Eve Arden (April 30, 1908–November 12, 1990) was an American actress born as Eunice Quedens in Mill Valley, California. She has participated in little more than 50 movies.

Beals has since starred in a list of lesser-known films and independent projects. Her career was affected by scandal shortly after, however, when it was revealed that some of the scenes in that movie where athletics were required were actually performed not by Beals herself, but by doubles. Flashdance made Beals a Hollywood star and made her a household name. Beals is a former teen model who is probably better known for her role as Alex in the 1983 movie Flashdance.
