Overview
Barbara Mills was born on February 23, 1951. She hailed from Oxford, Massachusetts. Mills left home and moved to the bohemian artistic community of Venice Beach, California shortly after turning seventeen. Barbara established permanent roots in Venice Beach in the late 1960's. Mills started doing nude modeling on the side while attending college as an art major (she specialized in paintings). Barbara acted in her first movie in 1968. She met her husband Frank Mills in 1969. Frank got her an agent named Hal Guthu; this in turn led to additional work in various soft-core pictures and exploitation features that were made throughout the 1970's. Besides acting in a handful of films, Mills was also an independent painter in the Venice Beach area. She died on December 15, 2010 at age 59 in Ko Samui, Thailand.
