Her career spanned six decades, consisting of over fifty feature films and over one hundred television appearances. She is perhaps best known for her roles in ''An American in Paris'' (1951); Robert Wise's ''Executive Suite'' (1954), which earned her an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress; Cecil B. DeMille's ''The Ten Commandments'' (1956); and Stanley Kubrick's ''Spartacus'' (1960). Foch also worked prominently in television, starring in a multitude of television series from 1951 until 2007. In addition to acting, Foch taught drama at the American Film Institute and at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts, where she was a faculty member for over forty years until her death in 2008. == Early life == Nina Foch was born Nina Consuelo Maud Fock〔(Obituary in Washington Post )〕 in Leiden, Netherlands to American actress and singer Consuelo Flowerton and Dutch classical music conductor Dirk Fock.
