@Group 5 minus 1yes, she was on "Love of Life", in the 60's.  Besides that, one of my first recollections of her was in the early 70's, in a movie called "Sandcastles" which also starred Herschel Bernardi and a very hunky Jan Michael-Vincent.

Did JMV ever straighten out? I think he had a death wish. If I recall, he ended up in a wheel chair with emphysema - not sure.

Bonnie Bedelia also played Harrison Ford’s wife (the killer!) in Presumed Innocent and most recently on TV as the matriarch on Parenthood. 

 

Here’s a family connection I had no idea about. Keith Carradine is Martha Plimpton’s father.

Jan Michael Vincent was beyond gorgeous. I had such a crush on him as a young girl.  I've seen photos of him taken a few years ago....not good. I guess alcohol pretty much ruined his life,career and looks. Sad.
