description: "Nancy Kovack is a retired American film and television actress. Intelligent, with an IQ of 152 and graduating early from school, she thought of acting as a business and planned accordingly, starting her acting career by modeling and entering beauty contests to raise her profile. Starting in Broadway, she gained roles in films with one of her notable early roles being the high priestess Medea in Jason and the Argonauts (1963). She continued with several film roles including in such films as Frankie and Johnny (1966) with Elvis Presley, but also appeared on many TV shows including as a femme fatale in one of the original Star Trek episodes, \"A Private Little War\" (1968). She was nominated for an Emmy Award for an appearance on Mannix and has been married once for over five decades to conductor Zubin Mehta."
