**Shirley Eaton (born 1937)** is a British actress, primarily known for her iconic role as Jill Masterson in **Goldfinger (1964)**. Her memorable and tragic death, with her body entirely covered in gold, cemented her status among the most celebrated "Bond girls" and created an indelible image in cinema history.

Before Bond, Eaton already had an established career in British cinema, often appearing in light comedies such as **Carry On Nurse (1959)**. She subsequently continued to act in films such as the thriller **Ten Little Indians (1965)** and the adventure film **The Million Eyes of Sumuru (1967)**. Her style often saw her portray attractive female characters, sometimes vulnerable or with a tragic fate, which earned her international, albeit brief, notoriety, given her relatively early retirement from acting.
