Among your television stints, there's Buck Rogers in the 25th CenturyWonder WomanStar Trek: The Next Generation, T.J. Hooker and The Facts of Life. You were also a staple on soap operas, including Young Doctor Malone, The Secret StormSomerset, All My Children, One Life to Live, Santa Barbara, Another WorldOur Private World and As the World Turns
