Margaret Nolan, also known as Vicky Kennedy, (born October 29, 1943) is a British artist and former actress & model.

Born in Hampstead, London to Irish parents, she adopted the name Vicky Kennedy when she burst onto the 'glamour' scene in the early 1960s. Her best glamour photo modelling work was with Harrison Marks in Kamera and other magazines. She later reverted to her birth name of Margaret Nolan and appeared in a number of films and television roles, including the James Bond film Goldfinger in the small role of Dink, Bond's masseuse, and several Carry On films, most sizably Carry on Girls. She also appeared in straight theatre, becoming interested in political themes. She was a talented comedian. She also appeared in Playboy magazine following her appearance in Goldfinger in 1965.

In Goldfinger, it was actually her body painted with gold in the titles and advertisements, not Shirley Eaton's as in the narrative of the film.

In a rare interview with Den of Geek [1] in December 2007, Nolan talked about moving away from England to Spain and becoming an artist. Nolan's artwork, which mostly consists of photomontages constructed from her old headshots, can be viewed at her official website [2].

In addition to film and theatre work, mentioned above, she made a number of appearances on TV.
