She is best known for her frequent appearances in B movies during the 1970s and 1980s. Born in Wels, Austria, Danning spent most of her childhood on military bases and travelling with her family around the world. After their return to Austria, she landed a job as a dental hygienist to support her family following her parents divorce. At the age of sixteen, Danning left her home and relocated to Salzburg, where she enrolled at a school of cosmetology. Working as a cosmetician, she soon got offered fashion shows and photo layouts. She made her screen debut in the German comedy, ''Komm nur, mein liebstes Vögelein'' (1968), followed by the role of Kriemhild in the erotic action film, ''The Long Swift Sword of Siegfried'' (1971). She continued receiving small parts in films mostly based on her sex symbol image. In 1978, Danning moved to Hollywood to further her career in American films. Her first film role was in Roger Corman's science fiction cult classic, ''Battle Beyond the Stars'' (1980), which established her as a B movie actress. She appeared in a number of films during the 1980s such as ''Chained Heat'' (1983), ''Hercules'' (1983), ''Malibu Express'' (1985), ''Howling II: Your Sister Is a Werewolf'' (1985) and ''Reform School Girls'' (1986). In 1990, her acting career was delayed after having an accident while rehearsing a film stunt. Suffering from a spinal disc herniation, Danning went on a hiatus from the film industry. ==Early life== Danning was born in Wels, Upper Austria, Austria as Sybille Johanna Danninger. Danning was the love child of a German-Dutch-American father, who left for the United States before Danning's birth. Her Austrian mother raised her, and later married a United States Army major; the family relocated to the United States. Danning led a nomadic early life on various Army bases in Sacramento, Maryland, and New Jersey. In New Jersey, she attended Eatontown's Star of the Sea Catholic School. The family then moved to Germany. Soon thereafter, her stepfather was relocated and Danning's mother declined to follow when he was ordered to go to Japan. Returning to Austria, the financial situation during her mother's divorce saw Danning leave school at 14 to help support the family. She took a job with her uncle as a dental assistant. Danning left home at 16 due to the strictness of the household's regulations. She moved to Vienna, where she worked in a dental supply company. After one year, Danning relocated to Salzburg, where she was hired to assist one of Europe's top oral surgeons, Dr. Franz Clementschitz. She gave up her dental career and enrolled in the renowned Buchner School of Cosmetology in Salzburg and received a diploma in facial treatment, decorative make-up, pedicure, manicure, and body massage. Danning planned to open her own beauty salon, but the state denied her an operating license because there were already five salons in the city. She was asked by the owner to work at the Buchner Institute as cosmetician, to book models and groom them. Soon Danning was much sought after for fashion shows and photo layouts full-time, internationally exploiting her classic Nordic beauty.〔(Biography ), SybilDanning.net〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sybil Danning」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
