Seymour is best known for her performances in the James Bond film “Live and Let Die,” “Somewhere in Time,” as well as the television series “Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman.” Her work has earned her an Emmy, two Golden Globes and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

In addition to being a celebrated actress, Seymour is also a lauded author and painter and designed the widely successful line of jewelry – Open Hearts by Jane Seymour. Crediting her mother’s advice and personal philosophy as her inspiration behind the line, the Open Heart design has become a universally-recognized symbol of giving and receiving love.
