Writeup: A gifted actress of both the big and small
screen, Talia has proved her mettle in a number of feature
films, TV movies and endearing guest starring roles on TV
shows. Her first Hollywood exposure came in 1977 in a well
liked guest starring turn on three episodes of Happy Days.
She followed that with the TV movie Alexander: The Other Side
of Dawn (1977), and so began a long and fruitful career. She
has never struck it rich in feature films, appearing mostly
in slasher flicks and low budget fare, but she is a welcome
addition to any picture. Some of her films include Crawlspace
(1986), The Supernaturals (1986), In the Mood (1987), Killer
Instinct (1991), Coldblooded (1995), Valerie Flake (1999)
and Emmett's Mark (2002). Despite these credits, Talia has
always been a TV star, with most of her impressive roles coming
in the form of a guest star shots on popular TV shows. In
fact, she has appeared on some of the most popular TV shows
in history. Here's a list of examples: Taxi, Hill Street Blues,
Cagney & Lacey, Magnum PI, Punky Brewster, Murder She
Wrote, Thirtysomething, Law & Order, and Without A Trace.
She's also been a series regular on one show in her lifetime,
1998's LA Doctors, which didn't live out the season. |
