SHARON GLESS

She got her start back in the ’70s after taking on the role of Maggi Philbin from the TV show Switch, which aired from 1975-1978. This was followed by another successful turn as Sgt. Christine Cagney on Cagney and Lacey. Both shows received much love during their run, cementing Sharon as a genuine TV icon. This is further proven by the fact that the actress has her own Hollywood Walk of Fame star in 1995. She also earned numerous awards from the Golden Globe and Emmy.

From 1972 up to the present, she is still proving her name in the industry. There are many movies in her pipeline, and she wanted to act as long as she could. Sharon is presently in semi-retirement and is taking on fewer jobs. In fact, her last movie credit is from The Gifted and Casualty. We’re sure she won’t worry about paying off her insurance even after she leaves the industry.
