HEATHER THOMAS
Heather Anne Thomas is an American actor, journalist, and political activist. This blonde beauty is familiar to fans of the T.V. show The Fall Guy as Jody Banks. At the age of 14, she first had her start as a host on NBC’s Talking with a Giant. This hosting gig was followed by small T.V. roles, including a spot in Co-Ed Fever.
However, she suffered a rough patch during the ’80s, entering rehabilitation to treat her addiction.
Heather retired from acting in 1998, citing stalkers and wanting to focus more on her family. She wrote a screenplay during this time, selling it to Touchstone for a mid-six-figure sum. Thomas and Brittenham were co-hosts of a monthly fund-raising breakfast event at their home in Santa Monica, California, which became known in Washington as the “L.A. Cafe.” With her life experienced, and talent, we’re sure Heather won’t be needing loans anytime soon.
