Which world famous actress did undercover work for the Allies against the Nazis in the WW2 ?
ANSWER: Greta Garbo
7 answers:
Marlene Dietrich
Virginia Hall.
She was honored for her work at the end of 2006 by the British and the French.
Josephine Baker
To take another stab at it...
Mata Hari? aka Margaretha Geertruida (Grietje) Zelle
Marlene Dietrich wasn't really a spy, Virginia Hall was a spy, but not famous actress. Josephine Baker also spied in WW2, but she is known as exotic dancer and entertainer. Again, Mata Hari was no actress.
HINT:
The actress we're looking for here was born in Sweden.
Greta Garbo (I found a couple references to it but it sounds like ti was kept very much secret until quite recently.)
That's right, JD. Except playing a famous female spy Mata Hari, in the 1932 film of the same name, she did some undercover work in the real life too - spied for the British in WWII.
