Career
Carrera began a career as a model at the Eileen Ford agency at the age of 17, and was much sought due to her toned physique and beautiful features.
Her first appearance on the screen was a publicity role for the Chiquita bananas. Her first film role was as a fashion model in Puzzle of a Downfall Child (1970), which fared poorly at the box office. She also appeared in Playboy.
She later played in such films as The Island of Dr. Moreau, Lone Wolf McQuade, Condorman, Point of Impact, Tryst, and Embryo. But she is perhaps best known for her role as the villainess Fatima Blush in the James Bond movie Never Say Never Again, which earned her a Golden Globes nomination for Best Performance by an Actress In A Supporting Role in a Motion Picture in 1984. She also played a part in the television series Dallas as "Angelica Nero", and more prominently, she was in the historical 1981 TV miniseries Masada and the 1978 TV miniseries "Centennial", which brought her to the mainstream attention of American audiences. She also starred as Emma Coe Forsayth in the television miniseries "Emma, Queen of the South Seas".
She is an artist, and her paintings have been hung in the Hollywood Entertainment Museum.
