Career overview
During the late 1960s, Helena Kallianiotes was the resident belly dancer at The Intersection, a Greek restaurant in North Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. This engagement led to her first film appearance
as an uncredited belly dancer in the 1968 film Head, directed by Bob Rafelson and starring The Monkees. Kallianiotes was later cast in another Rafelson film, Five Easy Pieces, starring Jack Nicholson and
Karen Black. She played Palm Apodaca, a neurotic, foul-mouthed "butch" hitch-hiker, traveling with her companion played by Toni Basil. In 1972, Kallianiotes appeared in her most celebrated role[1][2] as the ultra-aggressive roller derby skater Jackie Burdette in Kansas City Bomber, for which she received a Best Supporting Actress nomination for the 1973 Golden Globe Awards. Her other film roles include Mata Hari in Shanks (1974), Elaine Reavis in The Drowning Pool (1975), Anita in Stay Hungry, the Visionary Woman in
The Passover Plot (both 1976), and a future-reading brothel madam in Nicolas Roeg's Eureka (1983).
Life outside of film
In 1975 Kallianiotes appeared on the cover of Art Garfunkel's Breakaway album.
In 1985, she opened a private members-only club in Los Angeles called Helena's.[3]
