"I
walked in," Lynda recalls, "expecting, of course, that anyone who
was anyone in television would be there. And they were, the whole
gang: Farrah Fawcett, Jaclyn Smith, Suzanne Sommers, Kate Jackson,
Lindsay Wagner, Cheryl Ladd. We all went to the same auditions, at
the time. None of us had done that much, just a, couple of
commercials and small parts on various shows. Kate was really the
only one with any extensive experience [i.e. Dark Shadows, The
Rookies]. The interesting thing is that we didn't have to do a
cold reading, which I've never been too fond of, anyway. I never
won a role from doing one. I'm terrible at them. I just freeze
up." |
