biography

Respected stage and TV actress who first gained prominence as the winsome object of Albert Finney's affections in "Tom Jones" (1963) and turned in fine performances in "A Man for All Seasons" (1966) and "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?" (1969).

York's career was briefly fueled by starring roles in two controversial films dealing with lesbianism, "The Killing of Sister George" (1968) and "X,Y and Zee" (1971). She has since appeared in mainstream fare such as the "Superman" series as well as art-house features including Jerzy Skolimowski's "The Shout" (1978) and Andi Engel's "Melancholia" (1989).
