Dolly (sheep)
Dolly was cloned by Keith Campbell, Ian Wilmut and colleagues at the Roslin Institute, part of the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, and the biotechnology company PPL Therapeutics, based near Edinburgh. The funding for Dolly's cloning was provided by PPL Therapeutics and the Ministry of Agriculture. She was born on 5 July 1996 and died from a progressive lung disease five months before her seventh birthday (the disease was not considered related to her being a clone). She has been called "the world's most famous sheep" by sources including BBC News and "Scientific American".
Dolores Donlon
Born in 1920, Donlon trimmed a few years off her age by claiming 1926 as the year of her birth. She began modeling in the mid-1940s under the name Pat Van Iver and acting in 1948 with uncredited walk-on parts in movies including "Dough Girls" and "Easter Parade". In 1946, she was elected Queen of the Ball by the New York Press Photographers Association. By 1954, she was playing credited roles in movies such as "The Long Wait" and "Security Risk", and appearing in television series. Her television credits include roles in "The Texan", "Richard Diamond, Private Detective", "Maverick", "Perry Mason", "The Jack Benny Program", "77 Sunset Strip" and "I Love Lucy".
