The Cat is coming to Bat City!!! We’re so excited to announce our very first Celebrity Guest!! Please welcome the Legendary, Julie Newmar to Greater Austin Comic Con this June 24th & 25th at the H-E-B Center at Cedar Park.
Born in Hollywood…known for being the quintessential Catwoman. Julie Newmar dropped out of college to become a choreographer/ dance director for Universal Studios. Her early appearances are often seen on YouTube, including her role as the golden statue-come to-life in the film Serpent of the Nile.
She soon became an overnight sensation as the one and only Stupefyin’ Jones in Li’l Abner. Julie won a Tony for her acting role on Broadway in the hit comedy Marriage-Go-Round, and she was immediately accepted by the prestigious Actors Studio. Loving dance, she continued to star in Bob Fosse’s musicals on and off Broadway. She toured nationally with Joel Grey in Stop the World I Want to Get Off.
She guest-starred in many now-favorite TV episodes, on shows such as The Monkees, Columbo, Love American Style, Get Smart, Star Trek, F Troop, The Beverly Hillbillies, Twilight Zone and Route 66. The part she’s most fondly remembered for is Catwoman, in the original Batman television series.
In 1995, Universal Pictures and Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment produced a movie named after her, “To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newmar”. In the film, Julie appeared as herself.
