Saax Bradbury

The daughter of Sara Elizabeth Baxter and Edwin Harry Bradbury, Sara Alexander Bradbury was born in New Bern, North Carolina. She is known for her role in the movie The Turning Point (1977) and Appointment with Destiny (1971). Tragically, she died in a plane crash in Arizona just one month after she completed filming The Turning Point. The pilot of the four seat Cessna was unlicensed. Growing up, she went by "Sara Alex," but began using the nickname "Saax" after studying at The Neighborhood Playhouse in New York. Her memory is honored to this day through the Saax Bradbury Players, the youth of New Bern and the surrounding area who perform in local plays. She is buried in New Bern Memorial Cemetery in Trent Woods, North Carolina. Show less «
