Jaclyn Smith
| Biography |
born: 26-10-1947
birth place: Texas, USA
After attending Trinity University and the University of San Antonio, brunette Jaclyn Smith flourished as a model and cover girl.
Making her first film appearance in 1969, Smith endured such negligible movie projects as 'The Moonshiners' (1974), before achieving stardom as Kelly Garrett, showgirl-turned Private Investigator, on the spectacularly successful TV series, 'Charlie's Angels'.
She was the only member of the original Angels to remain with the series from its debut in 1976 to its final telecast in 1981.
Like her 'Charlie's Angels' cohorts, Cheryl Ladd and Farrah Fawcett, Smith went on to a busy career in made-for-TV movies, efficiently playing the title roles in 'Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy' (1982) and 'Florence Nightingale' (1985).
In 1989, she returned to the weekly-TV grind as star of the mystery series, 'Christine Cromwell'. That same year, Hollywood insiders voted Smith as one of the nicest and most cooperative actresses in the business (her 'Charlie's Angels' co-star, Kate Jackson, was elected one of the least likeable performers in Tinseltown).
Jaclyn Smith has been married twice, to actor Dennis Cole and cinematographer Tony Richmond. |
