Molly McQueen

Steve McQueen, born in Beech Grove, Indiana, was a troubled youth who was able to rise from reform schools to become the world's most popular actor in the 1960s. Over 40 years since his death from mesothelioma in 1980, McQueen's cool and iconic status have continued to endure in popular culture. His son, Chad McQueen, was born in Los Angeles in 1960 and is an actor and producer, best known for his roles in The Karate Kid and The Karate Kid Part II. His mother, Neile Adams, was born in Manila in 1932, of mixed Spanish Basque, Chinese, and English descent. Steven R. McQueen, Chad's son and Steve McQueen's grandson, is an actor who plays Jeremy Gilbert in The Vampire Diaries. Steven's sister, Molly McQueen, is also an actor and producer. Finally, Enrique Miguel Iglesias Preysler, son of Steve McQueen's wife, is a Spanish singer who released his first album at 18 and has since become a multi-platinum recording artist. Thus, the McQueen dynasty has produced multiple world-renowned artists, spanning generations and across a variety of disciplines.
